Studio 5000 Environment
The Studio 5000 Automation Engineering & Design Environment™ combines
engineering and design elements into a common environment. The first element
is the Studio 5000 Logix Designer™ application. The Logix Designer application
is the rebranding of RSLogix™ 5000 software and will continue to be the product
to program Logix5000™ controllers for discrete, process, batch, motion, safety,
and drive-based solutions.
The Studio 5000® environment is the foundation for the future of Rockwell
Automation® engineering design tools and capabilities. The Studio 5000
environment is the one place for design engineers to develop all of the elements of
their control system.
