FactoryTalk Logix Echo
An emulated controller is the most flexible tool for you during design, testing and evaluation. With FactoryTalk® Logix Echo, ControlLogix® 5580, GuardLogix® 5580, CompactLogix® 5380 and Compact GuardLogix® 5380 controllers can all be yours with a click of a button.
Our emulation software can help you:
- Save time and budget by validating, testing and optimizing your control logic without any physical hardware
- Reach optimal designs quicker by moving from design to run—and back again—without additional program changes or reconfigurations
- Drive data to digital twin models or other simulations to create a system-level test bed
Are you ready to jumpstart your controller emulation experience?
Now is your opportunity to try FactoryTalk Logix Echo firsthand with a 30-day trial
During this time, you will have access to features including:
- Emulating ControlLogix 5580, GuardLogix 5580, CompactLogix 5380 and Compact GuardLogix 5380 for multi-controller system digital design and testing.
- Creating and restoring snapshots at a known controller state for training or troubleshooting.
- Downloading motion code to the virtual controllers without any code changes to test CIP-Axis based motion program and configurations.
- Interfacing the emulator through a well-documented API to expand the system level configuration and virtual testing capabilities.
Evaluate and test controller applications quickly and precisely with emulation software
We’re excited to present FactoryTalk Logix Echo, the latest software for Logix Controller emulation
You can now:
- Emulate multiple controllers in multiple chassis to match the physical system implementation
- Download directly to the virtual controller without any code changes for accurate emulation
- Reduce overall risk by evaluating multiple versions of firmware for performance and compatibility before implementing into a production system
- Create and restore snapshots at known controller states for quick and accurate testing/training with real data, but in a controlled environment

A Better Way to Work
Improve Your Products and Processes in a Digital Environment
Digital twins, advanced analytics and augmented reality are forever changing how automation systems are designed, operated and maintained. But for many, these capabilities are so big and broad that their value is hard to grasp. A digital twin, for example, can improve a machine design or production process in nearly unlimited ways.
This is why it can be helpful to first look at how digital engineering is changing the ways we work today. Then, once you have a better understanding of the technology, you can decide which use cases for deploying it are right for you.
