Controller Properties dialog box - Capacity tab for 5x80 controllers

This information applies to the
Compact GuardLogix
 5380,
CompactLogix
 5380,
CompactLogix
 5480,
ControlLogix
 5580, and
GuardLogix
 5580 controllers.
Use the
Capacity
 tab of the
Controller Properties
 dialog box to view the size of the source code of your application.
TIP: To open the Capacity tab:
  1. On the
    Online
    toolbar, click the
    Controller Properties
     icon.
  2. On the
    Controller Properties
     dialog box, click the
    Capacity
     tab.
Instead of
describing consumed memory in bytes, the
Capacity
 tab for these controllers shows the project size in blocks in one common memory area. The project size in blocks is compared to the specified product capacity in blocks to determine if the project can be downloaded to the controller.
Block units are only used for application source code sizes. Data structures and messages are still described in bytes.
IMPORTANT:
Although block sizes are not physically equivalent to the bytes measured in previous 5570 controllers, in general, applications that fit in a specific controller with divided memory should fit in the same controller with one common memory area.
Some controllers have limits on the number of Ethernet nodes they support in the I/O Configuration tree. Use the
Capacity
 tab to view the maximum number of Ethernet nodes supported by the controller and number of used Ethernet nodes in the I/O Configuration tree.
