1.7.1  To Determine the Firmware Version of your Processor 

Important: The RSLinx service must be installed and running on your computer in order for 
RSLogix to communicate with the processor. Refer to your RSLinx and RSLogix documentation for 
help configuring and troubleshooting these applications. 

1 

Connect an RS-232 serial cable from the COM (serial) port on your PC to the 
communication port on the front of the processor.  

2 

Start RSLogix 5000 and close any existing project that may be loaded. 

3 

Open the Communications menu and choose

 Go Online

. RSLogix will 

establish communication with the processor. This may take a few moments. 

4 

When RSLogix has established communication with the processor, the 
Connected To Go Online dialog box will open. 

 

5 

On the Connected To Go Online dialog box, click the General tab. This tab 
shows information about the processor, including the Revision (firmware) 
version. In the following illustration, the firmware version is 11.32
