Looking for a legitimate copy or download link of RSLogix 5000 V11

Question:

Does anyone have a legitimate copy or a direct download link to this outdated software? Despite having valid licenses on my computer, attempting to download it from Rockwell results in a message stating it is no longer accessible. Instead, users are directed to contact Rockwell for firmware upgrade support. I am not interested in obtaining a pirated version. If anyone can provide a genuine copy, it would be greatly appreciated.

If you're looking to upgrade your RSLogix5000 project to a more recent version like 16 or 17, keep in mind that you can't directly convert to that software version. Instead, consider first converting to RSStudio using a version 16 or 17 file. Choosing to work on a project in an older version like 11 may not be ideal, as it's akin to using outdated technology from the mid to late 90s.

Jim3846 mentioned that it is possible to convert a project from RSLogix5000 version 16 or 17 to a later version like RSStudio. However, working online with a controller that has version 11 firmware requires using the corresponding version 11 software. It is essential to use the correct software version for making changes to controllers with specific firmware versions to ensure compatibility and functionality.

Thank you for your assistance, but we discovered an outdated installation on our server. While I can update the project and work offline, the processor is limited to version 11 due to its age. Since we are in the process of upgrading the entire system, the customer is not willing to replace the processor just for a minor adjustment at this time.

You have the option to download Rockwell software directly from their official download site. Versions go as far back as v7, with v11 offering version 11.16. I successfully downloaded the software without any complications. OG

Upon visiting their website, I was able to successfully download a PDF file. However, upon reviewing the file, it prompted me to contact Rockwell for a firmware upgrade. Fortunately, we already had a copy of the upgrade that I was unaware of. Additionally, our license that was supposed to cover all Rockwell 5000 versions does not include versions 11. It only covers versions V12 to V33. This discrepancy in coverage is confusing and frustrating. It seems that some sort of upgrade will be necessary to address this issue.

I completely understand your predicament; it's frustrating when you actually own the license, but can't acquire the software due to its age. While it's against forum rules to share direct download links, there's a workaround you might consider if you haven't already: contacting Rockwell's customer service. Even though it suggests cooperative firmware upgrade support, sometimes they can grant special access to old software archives if you explain your situation. Be persistent and highlight your legitimate license. It worked for me once, so it's worth a try!

I understand your predicament and it's really frustrating when you can't access a software that you're licensed to use. Unfortunately, I also don't have a direct download link to share with you. However, I'd recommend contacting Rockwell's support directly to discuss your particular situation. While they might want to promote their newer version, they might be willing to provide a genuine copy of the software you're currently licensed to use, if you explain the circumstance. This way, you're ensuring that you're working within legal constraints. Good luck with it!

I understand your predicament. As a long-time user of Rockwell products, I too have faced the same issue with outdated software. I can't directly give you a download link due to copyright issues, but I recommend checking out legacy hardware forums or contacting some old colleagues in the industry who may potentially have a backup. Do remember that the software might not receive any security updates or support, so it's best used in a secure, offline environment.

I understand your frustration, but sharing software copies, even if they're legitimate, might violate the terms of service set by Rockwell, potentially putting both parties at risk. Instead of seeking a direct download, I encourage getting in touch with Rockwell's support. You mentioned their firmware upgrade support, but they may also provide legacy support for older software versions if you press your case. Good luck!

I totally understand your frustration—it's a pain when you have valid licenses but can't access the software you need. While I don't have a direct link, I recommend reaching out to Rockwell's support team directly; they can sometimes provide legacy versions to customers with valid licenses, especially if you explain your situation. Alternatively, if you're part of any industry forums or groups, someone there might have a copy or suggestions on how to get it!
