Software Application Requirements
In addition to the Logix Designer application requirement, there are other
minimum software version requirements in a CompactLogix 5480 system. If a
CompactLogix 5480 system does not meet the minimum requirements, it does
not work.
For more information on the software application requirements, see:

Controller Firmware and Logix Designer Application Compatibility
In Logix 5000™ control systems, the controller firmware and the
Logix Designer application must be compatible. To be compatible, the
firmware and software must be of the same major revision level.
For more information on controller firmware revisions and software
application minimum requirements, go to the PCDC.
• The Download section has the firmware for your controller.
• The Compare section has software compatibility information for
software applications that are used in a CompactLogix 5480 control
system.
The CompactLogix 5480 controller uses a high-performance architecture to
support the functionality that is common to Logix 5000 controllers.
The controller goes beyond other Logix 5000 controllers, in that a COS runs
in parallel with the Logix control engine. The pre-installed, licensed COS lets
you perform tasks on the controller that must be performed on an external
workstation in other Logix 5000 control systems.
For more detailed information about the COS, see Chapter 10,
