SoftPLC Corporation : SLiCk Convert

SLC-500 to SoftPLC Conversion!

Another industry first!!

SoftPLC Corporation now offers SLiCk Convert - an automated utility to convert a SLC-500 program (ladder logic and documentation) to a SoftPLC formatted application file. The results of the conversion utility can be loaded into TOPDOC NexGen and then run in a SoftPLC controller.

This service is available via email from SoftPLC Corp. The process is quite simple:

From your SLC-500 programming software (eg: RSLogix500), use the File » Save As options to save your program to .SLC format. This will generate a number of files for the logic and program documentation in the proper format for SLiCk Convert.
You will then need to email these files to SoftPLC, who will use our SLiCk Convert utility. The utility generates a "Program Conversion Report, which includes:
1. an I/O Module Conversion Table that shows the SLC-500 modules and addresses and the equivalent SoftPLC In Tealware modules and address assignments.
2. a table that lists any Data Table Address Relocations that are made during the conversion process
3. a list of special Data Table files created to handle functions such as PID, MSG, and other more sophisticated routines
4. a Notes section that details the conversion results including whether any instructions did not convert and any items that may need some additional manual work before using with SoftPLC
We charge a flat conversion fee of $150 USD for each application. After payment has been made, you will receive an email with the converted application file.
The converted application is in .XML format. You can use the XML import option in TOPDOC NexGen to load the file and convert it to a SOFTPLC.APP for use with TOPDOC and SoftPLC.
