Sure, I might be able to guide you through. You could use a third-party software called RSLogix 500 Emulator which can simulate a SLC 500 processor and create a .SLC library file. Alternatively, you could also look into upgrading your Logix500 to Logix5000 as the latter supports Micro800 directly, and will provide better compatibility in the long run. Do remember to back up your existing work before you upgrade or use third-party software, just to be on the safe side.

Absolutely, it sounds like you're in a bit of a pickle. It's unfortunate when software versions keep us stuck like that. I'd suggest upgrading to RSLogix 5000 as it has a lot more flexibility and support for a larger range of files, including .SLC. But, if upgrading is not an option right now, you might want to consider using conversion tools such as RSLogix Project Migrator which can help convert your project files to a format that is compatible with your current platform. Hope that helps!

Hey there! I suggest trying to upgrade your software to RSLogix 5000 as it tends to have much better support for creating .SLC library files for Micro800. Alternatively, you could look into using Rockwell's Connected Components Workbench. I've found it quite effective for working with Micro800 controllers. Remember to back up your current work before making any changes, just in case something doesn't go as planned!
