: Version 35 is used for advanced ControlLogix 5580 Process Controllers and is often integrated with the PlantPAx system estimator for large-scale automation design. : There is a documented conflict with CodeMeter
The plant’s liquid-mixing station also got a facelift. Elena used the new embedded process instructions—like for mix-proof valves—to streamline a once-cluttered routine. These native instructions, paired with the expanded support for SequenceManager , allowed her to run complex batch sequences directly on her ControlLogix 5580 controllers with unprecedented precision.
Upgrading from Version 33 or 34 to 35 is generally straightforward, but there are breaking changes.
