Add Diagnostics to the Controller
The Logix Controller CPU Utilization (L_CPU) Add-On Instruction faceplate monitors a Logix controller and provides
controller information on the system status page of the HMI template. This status information includes controller CPU
utilization, communication usage, memory usage, task scan times, and controller loading.
Follow these steps to add the Add-On Instruction to an online controller by using RSLogix 5000 software.
1. Open RSLogix 5000 software.
2. Open your target controller application from the saved location in step 6
on page 22.
3. From the Controller Organizer, click the ‘+’ to expand the Controller Status task and the Diagnostics program and
then double-click the LCPU routine.
4. Right-click Rung 0 and choose Import Rungs.
TIP
The diagnostics that you need to complete tasks in the next section are distributed with the Library in the Logix Diagnostic
Objects Library folder.
