About Sample Code Website

The goal of this site is to give users a place to share their best Integrated Architecture applications, including logic, HMI and drive applications.

When downloading code from the Rockwell Automation Sample Code website, please keep the following in mind::

See the "Search Tips" link for help in searching the site. Generally, remember that "less is more" when searching. Use a one word search whenever possible.
If you have questions or need assistance with a search, you can contact us at RASampleCode@ra.rockwell.com
Note that you can display search results by Title, Downloads, Rating or Date. For example, you can use the Date option to display the latest postings.
Click on "Information & Description" for more details about the sample code.
If a code is designated "RA Preferred code", it may be supported by RA Technical Support. Contact RA Technical Support or the Technical Support Knowledgebase for details. For other sample codes, the Rockwell Automation Forum is an available resource accessible from the Tech Support web page
Feel free to rate or review on the sample code using the "Submit" link.

When posting code to the Rockwell Automation Sample Code website, please keep the following in mind:

The section of code that you post must be "complete". It must be a working unit. Do not post snippets so small that they are not useful without contacting you directly. For example, a section of code that shows how to convert a decimal number to IEEE binary floating point would be acceptable. Another example is an RSLogix 5000 UDT for a PowerFlex drive on DeviceNet.
All files should be placed into one file in a "Zip" file format.
In the description field post the software versions/firmware versions for all the applicable components. This is a big help to users.
In the description field, if you wish, you may post contact information, such as name, company name, email or phone number.
This web site is not intended to replace Technical Support, product fixes or product workarounds. Rockwell Automation has support sites specifically for that purpose. This site is intended to allow you to share sections of code that you think other users might find helpful.
No profanity, degrading remarks, etc.
Do not use RSLogix 5000´s Routine Source Protection in the code you are posting. The user of the code needs to be able to see it and modify it.
This web site allows you to share your best work with others in the automation community worldwide.
After you submit code, it will not appear on the site for few days while it is given a brief review by the site manager. The code is not checked for accuracy or completeness, but it will be checked for profanity, etc.
