Preface
About this Publication This document serves as a guide for replacing your existing SLC 500™ controller
or I/O module with another SLC 500 product, or with a different product such
as a CompactLogix™ 5370 controller, CompactLogix 5380 controller,
Compact I/O™ module, or Compact 5000™ I/O module.
The SLC 500 Control System hardware was redesigned to be RoHS compliant.
As a result, several of the products will continue to be available for years to come,
however, some products, such as less capable controllers and lower density I/O,
have been discontinued.
The SLC control platform in general is in the Active Mature lifecycle state, as the
newer CompactLogix platform provides greater functionality and connectivity.
The following chapters of this document describe the many SLC,
CompactLogix, and Compact I/O options available for active management of
your installed base of control products. You have the option of maintaining,
migrating, or replacing that installed base in a phased manner to meet your needs.
This document focuses on hardware migration. For more detailed information,
including instructions for converting an SLC program to a Logix program, refer
to SLC/MicroLogix 1500 to CompactLogix Migration Guide,
publication 1769-AP001.
Audience This document is intended for users of SLC 500 controllers and I/O modules
who are familiar with the RSLogix 500® programming software.
Required Software If the replacement is an SLC 500 controller or I/O module, no additional
software is required.
If the replacement is a CompactLogix 5370 controller, CompactLogix 5380
controller, Compact I/O module, or Compact 5000 I/O module, the following
are required:
• Studio 5000® environment
The Studio 5000® environment combines elements of design into one
standard framework that optimizes productivity and reduces time to
commission.
With the Studio 5000 Applications you can:
–Build and maintain a system layout in a central place with
Studio 5000 Architect®
–Configure, program, and maintain your Logix5000™ or Logix 5000™
family of controllers with Studio 5000 Logix Designer®

Preface
–Create intuitive, modern screens for the PanelView™ 5000 graphic
terminals with Studio 5000 View Designer®
–Create and leverage reusable libraries of content for rapid project
development with Application Code Manager
The following CompactLogix controllers are compatible with
Studio 5000 Applications:
• RSLogix 500/RSLogix Micro version 12 or RSLogix Project Migrator
The RSLogix 500/RSLogix Micro version 12 software includes an
integrated SLC to CompactLogix program converter tool. To convert,
simply perform a Save Program As, then select file type as *.ACD, and fill
out the menu prompts.
For older versions of RSLogix 500/RSLogix Micro, the RSLogix Project
Migrator tool is a free, standalone software tool for converting an RSLogix
5 or RSLogix 500 project export file for import into Studio 5000 Logix
Designer application.
The standalone converter tool is available for download at:
