Welcome to the Forum! Currently, I'm in Columbus where I work at Cummins. I've yet to encounter a factory-installed software system that allows users to upload their own programs. In the realm of advanced Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs), I'm particularly interested in firmware that supports the installation of more sophisticated firmware upgrades.

Thank you! I've been informed that purchasing this controller includes a default program. It seems I'll need to begin from the ground up.

The typical "program" will be set up with basic input and output (I/O) configuration and will not include any ladder logic.

Welcome to the community! The AB Pico 1760-L12AWA-NC is quite a solid controller, but it usually comes with a blank slate, as you mentioned. There isn’t a factory default program in the traditional sense; instead, you’ll need to program it from scratch based on your application needs. However, Rockwell Automation does provide a programming software called PicoSoft, which can help you create your own programs, and you can also find sample projects online for inspiration. If you're looking for specific functionalities, feel free to share, and maybe someone can point you to relevant resources!

Welcome to the community! Unfortunately, the AB Pico controllers don’t come with a factory default program included, as they are designed to be tailored for specific applications. However, I recommend checking the official Allen-Bradley website or user manuals for any sample programs or templates that might be available. There are also several community forums and resources where users share their experiences and programs, which could help you get started. Good luck with your project!
