Study Guide Overview
Objectives
This self study guide is intended for new users of Connected Components Workbench software who have purchased the
Micro820 or Micro850 Starter Pack. This document is also a useful self study guide to any new users of Micro800
controllers or PanelView 800 terminals who did not purchase the Micro820 or Micro850 Starter Pack. This self study
guide assumes that the user has basic knowledge of a Programmable Logic Controller (PLC).
The Micro850 controller is used in the examples shown in this quick start, however they also apply to Micro820
controllers. Any major differences between the Micro820 and Micro850 controllers will be mentioned.
Required Tools
• One of the following Micro800 Starter Packs:
–Micro820 Starter Pack Lite (2080-LC20-STARTERPACKL) or
–Micro820 Starter Pack with PanelView 800 (2080-LC20-STARTERPACK) or
–Micro850 Starter Pack Lite (2080-LC50-STARTERPACKL) or
–Micro850 Starter Pack with PanelView 800 (2080-LC50-STARTERPACK)
• Micro800 controller firmware revision 10.011 or later
• Connected Components Workbench software version 10.01 or later
Software can be downloaded from the Connected Components Workbench website

This is the default project layout. The contents of each window and the general task the window is used for are described
below.
Project Organizer
Project Organizer displays the contents of your project in an organized tree
view, providing access to each of the devices and project elements.
From the Project Organizer, you can add, move, or delete devices and project
elements, and double-click them to display their contents.
If your project contains a Micro800 controller, the Project Organizer also
displays the logic programs, variables, user-defined functions (UDF) and
user-defined function blocks (UDFB) that are associated with that controller.
