Installed RSLogix 500 [RSLogix Micro Starter Lite w/o RSLinx EN (8.30.00)], RSLogix 500 Emulate, and RSLinx [RSLinx Classic 2.57.00] from Rockwell Automation. RSLogix 500 is not indicating EMU500-1 (or any emulator) as indicated in SolisPLC tutorial.

Setup RSLinks:

  1. Under the Communications menu select Configure Drivers.
  2. Under the Available Drivers Types select the SLC 500 (DH485) Emulator driver and click the Add New button.
  3. You can give the driver a name but I just leave it at the default of EMU500-1.
  4. Leave the configuration options as Station Number 00 and click OK.

You need to open up RS500 emulate, load the program, setup a station number & put it into run mode.

Then you should see it in RSlinx.
