If it does not, ask for help. The contact we are looking for should look like the figure below.
Alias and Base point to the same memory location.
Alias tag
Base Tag
GM standard is that program tags are alias to controller scope tags.

RSLogix 5000 provides the option to display base tags for alias tags.
If yours does not, it may be turned off.

Turning On the Base Tag Display
1. In the Tools menu select options.
2. The option window should look like the figure below.
3. In the option screen, the check box for “Show Tag Alias Information” controls the display of the base
tag in the ladder.

Page 27
Introduction to Produced and Consumed Tags
1. Switch back to the AA005B1.ACD file.
2. Again open the controller tags window. (Double click on the controller tags icon in the COW).
3. Click in the “Show” drop-down menu and select “Produced” as shown below.
4. Produced tags are about the controller to share with other controllers for interlocks.
5. Using the “Show” drop-down menu like we did in step 3, select Consumed tags.
It should look like the window below.
Consumed tags are about information in other controllers for interlocks.

AA005B1 is interlocked with how many other controllers? ________
Tip
Remember: Produced and Consumed tags must be Controller-Scoped.

Interlocks Consumer Paths
Go to the COW I/O configuration folder as shown below.
List all the controller names that tags are being consumed from.
________________________________________________________________________
_______________________________________________________________________

Page 29
Introduction to Data Arrays
Earlier in the lab, the produced and consumed tags used arrays. We know from the reference manual that arrays
can be one-, two- or three-dimensional. Most applications probably won’t use 2 and 3 dimensional arrays. One-
dimensional arrays, however, are very practical.
1. Open the controller tags if they are not open.
1. Make sure that the top of tag window displays Show All Tags
2. Find kAlarm tag in the controller tags and Click on the + sign on kAlarm.
3. How many Dint’s are in kAlarm? ________________________________________________
4. Go to kAlarm[35] how many bits are in this element? ________________________________

Introduction to User-Defined-Data Types (UDTs)
The power of using UDTs is the way it can ensure consistency. For example, when using several robots, wouldn’t
it help if the I/O structure was the same for each robot?
1. Close all Ladder Logic Windows.
2. Scroll down the COW until you find the “Data Types” folder.
3. Double click the folder to open it.
4. Expand the User-Defined folder.
5. Scroll down and find the data type zd_Turck_FDNLS1600W.
6. Double click the data type. The screen below will be displayed.

Page 31
7. Now let’s look at a tag made using this UDT.
8. Open the screen for program tags for AM100CnvUdB1.
9. Find the tag BK01.
10. Notice how the tag structure follows the UDT.

11. Look at other block tags (BK02, BK03, BK04 and BK05).
Do they also follow the UDT structure? ________________________________

Lab 8 – Downloading, Uploading & Going Online
Description:
In this exercise, you will download your RSLogix 5000 project to the GuardLogix and go online to the controller.
 Demonstrate the ability to download a project to a GuardLogix controller

 Demonstrate the ability to go online to a GuardLogix controller
Equipment Required:
 Industrial terminal or computer with RSLogix 5000 and RSLinx

 A project from a previous lab to download
 Project: T_LAB07

Page 41
Downloading to the Controller and Going Online
Now that we have a working RSLinx driver and a properly configured RSLogix 5000 project, we can download the
project to the controller.
1. Open the RSLogix 5000 project T_LAB07.
2. Click on the “Who Active” icon indicated by the arrow on the figure above.
3. Find and click the controller in the Who Active tree. (It is best to select the driver created in an earlier
lab. The box in the graphic shows that the Path Toolbar remembers a history of online paths. Since
this is a new project, path will be labeled “None”)
Tip
It is important to remember that “Download” will overwrite the controller, which is rarely desired on the
plant floor (unless making major edits). Both “Upload” and “Online” will read from the controller to the
computer. This is usually the best way to get the “latest and greatest” working logic from the machine.
4. For the classroom exercise, we do not care what logic is currently in the controller, so click “Download”.
5. Confirm by clicking “Download”.
6. You may be prompted to go online (depending on
the software version). If so, click to go online. If not,
you will be automatically online. This is easily
verified by looking for illuminated indicators in the
Online Toolbar as shown to the right

Page 75
Troubleshooting Overview
The basic troubleshooting process can be described in the following manner.
1. Check the “Bay number”.
Some large plants may have 2 or more very similar machines in 2 different locations in the plant.
Troubleshooting the wrong one can be embarrassing and a waste of time.
2. Talk to the operator.
The operator usually spends so much time with a machine that he can point you in a direction that can
save you time. If it turns out to be miss-information, let the operator know the results so he/she can
help you remember for the next time.
3. Verify the operator’s description of the problem.
4. Check panel indicators.
PanelView screens, Marques, Bingo boards, FIS systems all can provide valuable troubleshooting
information.
5. Check controller lights.
Indicators lights on modules and other components can provide additional specific information vital to
troubleshooting.
6. Where did the machine stop in the sequence?
Try to determine if the problem is from a missing input or an output that didn’t fire.
Sometimes the messages you get in item 4 can be misleading. The tools discussed in this lab focus on step 4 and
step 6. If a message is misleading, you can find the originating logic to figure out what it means. For step 6, you
must determine if the root problem is an input or an output. This is accomplished through the use of the
troubleshooting tools.
