In addition to the 3DWorlds, the simulator also has basic I/O chassis containing switches, sliders, displays and output indicators. PLCLogix 5000 simulator features ten “real world” 3D PLC application environments (PLCLogix 500 features 11 3D Worlds) that graphically simulate process control operations for the following applications:
One of the main advantages of using PLCLogix is that it provides much-needed hands on experience in the operation of RSLogix and ControlLogix software and hardware and features realistic 3D-World simulation environments. The integration of the ladder logic programs with the 3DWorlds provides a unique opportunity for programming in real-time and observing the operation of complex control devices and systems. PLCLogix is designed to simulate the functionality of the most popular PLCs in industry the Logix 500 and Logix 5000 PLC. PLCLogix 500 and PLCLogix 5000 provide ten interactive 3D environments or “3DWorlds” which emulate a wide range of manufacturing and service applications.

PLC Technician II incorporates PLCLogix 5000, simulation software that emulates the Rockwell Studio 5000/RSLogix 5000 series PLC control software. PLC Technician incorporates PLCLogix 500, simulation software that emulates the Rockwell (Allen-Bradley) RSLogix 500 series PLC software. The student is able to design, run, test and debug ladder logic programs and simulate the operation of real-world PLC controlled systems. The PLC simulation software converts the student’s computer into a virtual PLC. One of the main features of the programs is the complete integration of laboratory experiments, using PLC simulation within the presentation of theory.
