The Studio 5000 integrated development environment offers features to help deliver automation systems more quickly. The Architect application can exchange data collaboratively with engineering tools such as Eplan and AutoCAD. This bidirectional data transfer helps improve startup time by reducing the need for engineers to manually re-enter control data from engineering tools into the software. The Application Code Manager includes predeveloped application content so engineers can use the content instead of creating custom code. Finally, the Logix Designer application includes license-based content protection to help manufacturers protect their Logix content’s design and execution by limiting who can view or edit object source code.
