MicroLogix 1100 Migration & Replacement Solutions
As MicroLogix 1100 systems continue to age in industrial environments, many facilities are planning upgrades to newer controller platforms that provide improved networking capability, long term supportability, and modern programming environments.
Migration paths for MicroLogix 1100 systems typically fall into two categories depending on whether the goal is rapid legacy replacement or full modernization.
Option 1: Migration to Micro850 L50E Controllers
The Micro850 L50E platform provides a modern replacement path for MicroLogix 1100 systems and introduces embedded Ethernet communications, improved performance, and support for the Connected Components Workbench (CCW) software environment.
This migration path is commonly recommended for customers modernizing machine control systems and industrial automation infrastructure.
Benefits of Migrating to Micro850 L50E
- Modern EtherNet/IP communications
- Dual Ethernet capability on selected models
- Improved processing performance
- Modern tag based programming environment
- Enhanced motion and high speed counter functionality
- Expanded industrial networking support
- Long term hardware availability and support
- Flexible 2085 expansion I/O architecture
Software Migration Considerations
- Migration from MicroLogix 1100 to Micro850 controllers may require:
- Conversion from RSLogix 500 projects to Connected Components Workbench projects
- Migration from legacy data table addressing to tag based variables
- Review of Message instructions, PID loops, and High Speed Counter functions
- Verification of Ethernet and serial communication settings
- Testing of HMI, SCADA, and industrial network integration
Hardware & Wiring Considerations
- Micro850 controllers use a different physical layout and removable terminal block system compared with MicroLogix controllers.
- Migration projects may require:
- Panel layout modifications
- New mounting positions
- Rewiring of local I/O connections
- Replacement of existing 1762 expansion modules with compatible 2085 expansion I/O modules
Option 2: Migration to MicroLogix 1400 Controllers
For customers requiring a faster repair or simpler migration path while maintaining compatibility with RSLogix 500 software and existing 1762 expansion I/O modules, the MicroLogix 1400 platform may provide a simpler upgrade path.
Benefits of Migrating to MicroLogix 1400
- Maintains RSLogix 500 programming environment
- Supports existing 1762 expansion I/O modules
- Preserves traditional data table architecture
- Simplified conversion from existing .RSS projects
- Embedded Ethernet communications
- Minimal application software changes
- Reduced commissioning time
Hardware Compatibility Considerations
MicroLogix 1400 controllers are physically larger than MicroLogix 1100 controllers and may require additional panel space during installation.
Existing 1762 expansion I/O modules can typically be reused directly with MicroLogix 1400 systems, simplifying hardware migration and reducing rewiring requirements.
Common Hardware Migration Paths
- 1763-L16AWA → 1766-L32AWA or 2080-L50E-24QWB
- 1763-L16BWA → 1766-L32BWA or 2080-L50E-24QWB
- 1763-L16BBB → 1766-L32BBB or 2080-L50E-24QBB
- 1763-L16DWD → 1766-L32DWD or 2080-L50E-24QWB
