Common Questions

Frequently Asked
Questions

Have questions about sourcing, programming, or upgrading Allen Bradley (Rockwell) systems in Chennai? Find expert answers below.

Ask Us Directly
The MicroLogix 1400 controller family has been marked for active retirement by Rockwell Automation. While parts are still widely used, user-end pricing has increased, and future availability will become restricted. Innovative Instruments & Controls provides full diagnostic support, program recovery, and repair services for these systems, along with structured upgrade planning to the Micro800 or CompactLogix series.
MicroLogix 1400 controllers are programmed using Rockwell's RSLogix 500 software. RSLinx Classic is also utilized to handle communication routing between the PLC and the development PC over EtherNet/IP (Ethernet) or serial DF1 (RS-232/RS-485). Our engineering team holds licensed versions of these software tools to work on your systems legally and safely.
Yes, the MicroLogix 1400 features a built-in RJ45 Ethernet port that supports EtherNet/IP messaging. This enables fast program uploads/downloads, live monitoring, and easy integration with modern PanelView HMI screens or SCADA configurations without requiring specialty serial programming cables.
Rockwell Automation recommends migrating MicroLogix 1400 systems to the Micro850 or Micro870 PLC range, which are programmed via Connected Components Workbench (CCW) software. For more complex, network-integrated plant environments, migrating to the CompactLogix 5380 series running Studio 5000 Logix Designer is the preferred long-term industrial standard.
Yes, we can perform program uploads from the PLC memory as long as the controller is not password-protected. However, please note that the uploaded program from RSLogix 500 will not include developer comments and tag descriptions unless those descriptors were saved on an EEPROM backup card installed in the PLC. Our team can reconstruct the code flow and add comments for you.
Our head office is centrally located at the SIDCO Industrial Estate in Thirumudivakkam, Chennai. For emergency breakdowns in nearby industrial areas such as Oragadam, Sriperumbudur, Ambattur, or Maraimalai Nagar, we can typically deploy an experienced automation programmer to your site within 4 to 6 hours of formal request validation.
