Firmware
Note that most of the modules supported by RSLogix 5000 utilize Flash-ROM for the storage of firmware. If you possess a module that requires a firmware change,
the ControlFLASH software tool can be used to perform an update to this Flash-ROM. This software tool and the firmware images for most of the supported
modules are contained on a CD-ROM or floppy diskettes shipped with RSLogix 5000. Starting with RSLogix 5000 V10.00.00, you can access the ControlFLASH tool
from within RSLogix 5000 (from the Tools menu), or you can automatically update your firmware as part of the project download process.
For additional information and assistance in performing a Flash-ROM update, please review the ControlFLASH manual.
In addition, Rockwell Software Technical Support has created a web site from which you can download firmware images for ControlLogix products. Go to
http://support.rockwellautomation.com/ControlFlash/ for a matrix detailing the versions of firmware that were released with each of the versions of RSLogix 5000
software, and to download the ControlFlash firmware kits and release note documents. Note that you will need your RSLogix 5000 serial number to complete the
download.

New axis types have been defined to align with a necessary rearchitecture of motion subsystems. There are now several motion axis data types where there was only
one type in prior releases. The new axis types are: AXIS_CONSUMED, AXIS_VIRTUAL, AXIS_SERVO, and AXIS_SERVO_DRIVE. This architectural
change was necessary to facilitate the addition of new types of motion axes in this release and in future releases.
Axis configuration dialogs have been redesigned for better organization and grouping of configuration parameters. New axis type, AXIS_SERVO_DRIVE, has
been added to support SERCOS-based servo drive axes when used in conjunction with 1756-M08SE module. Configuration dialogs display relevant data for an axis
based on its type and configuration settings.
Graphical iconic representations for axes have been added to the Controller Organizer. Quick access to configuration properties, faults, status, etc. are accessible via
mouse-driven context menus.
Motion Group graphical icon has been added to the Controller Organizer. This provides a quick visual display of all axes which are assigned to a motion group.
Assigning and unassigning axes can be accomplished through simple drag/drop/copy/paste using a mouse or pointing device.
Controller Organizer's I/O configuration has been updated so that SERCOS-based drives configured on their respective 1756-M08SE SERCOS controller module
appear below them in an hierarchical manner.
Quick-View Pane status display has been added to the bottom of the Controller Organizer. This display provides quick, top-level status information for the selected
task, module, SERCOS-based drive, or axis.
Direct Templated data access for commonly used axis tag attributes has been added to all motion axis types. This feature permits direct access and use of
commonly used axis data with instructions in the users program without having to store or retrieve these values through separate SSV/GSV instruction blocks.
GSV/SSV instructions now provide organized access to axis parameters based on whether the parameter is a configuration, status, or interface attribute.
Version 2.51.00
The 1794-IB16/A Input tag now has a 16-bit counter to count transitions on the input member counter.
Version 2.50.00
The 1794-IB16/A Input tag now has a 16-bit counter to count transitions on the input member counter.
Version 2.27.00
Added the ability to set IP address of 1756-ENET module via RSLogix 5000 I/O configuration In previous versions of RSLogix 5000 the only place you could set
the IP address was via the ControlLogix Gateway Configuration software. (CR88)
Added support to specify new request and response tags for CIP Data Table Read & Write messages The new types include an element of an array, a member of a
structure, and an element of an array that is a member of a structure. (CR156, 20537)
Allow messages larger than 500 bytes - CIP Data Table Read & Write messages will now allow transmission of more than 500 bytes of data. (CR184)
Added type ahead/auto-fill when entering tag names - As you begin typing in an edit field, RSLogix 5000 will automatically search the tag database for the first tag
that begins with the same sequence of characters and allow you to press enter to select it.
Allow individually configurable input and output data packet sizes for the 1756-DNB module of less than 500 bytes.
Modified the integer divide and square root instructions in the 1756-L1 firmware (4.42). Previously a fractional result may have been either truncated or rounded
up, depending on the value of the fractional result. Now, any fractional result of either of these integer instructions will always be truncated toward zero. (21447)
Removed the dynamic restrictions for the Motion Axis Jog (MAJ), Motion Axis Move (MAM), and Motion Change Dynamics (MCD) instructions.
Application errors are now recorded in the file RSLogix 5000 Fatal Error.Log" that can be emailed to Customer Support.
