In this chapter, we provided recommendations for improving your troubleshooting capabilities on the Logix platform. We also learned how to identify and troubleshoot the various types of faults that can occur on a Logix controller. We used Ladder Logic to trigger a major fault, and then we learned how to trap the major fault and prevent the controller from stopping when it occurs. Finally, we introduced the FactoryTalk TeamONE app, provided by Rockwell Automation for troubleshooting Logix issues while in the field from a mobile device.
In the next chapter, we will cover some of the security features that are available within RSLogix/Studio 5000.
