Intended Use

Designed for compact standalone machine control applications. Fixed SLC 500 controllers put processor, power supply and I/O in one unit for small machines, pump and fan sequencing, and simple conveyor sections, with a two-slot expansion chassis when a few more points are needed.

Migration Path

Rockwell Automation has discontinued SLC 500 fixed controllers. Published successor for the SLC 500 fixed controller: Micro850 (2080-L50E) or Micro870 (2080-L70E) for small panels, or CompactLogix 5380 (5069-L306ER) where the system is growing.

  • Connected Components Workbench includes an RSLogix 500 program converter that moves SLC 500 ladder into a Micro800 project; review timers, counters and indirect addressing after conversion.
  • Micro800 I/O wiring and terminal layout differ from the fixed SLC, so plan a re-termination rather than a drop-in swap.
  • For a Logix target, use the Studio 5000 project translation tool and 1756-RM085.

A like-for-like replacement or a repair keeps the existing program, wiring and panel layout; a migration is a project. Both are listed on this page so the choice can be made on lead time and budget.
