Create your project with a core set of devices

Start your project by adding your devices, or start project development logically, then add your hardware later. Either way, you can choose from a core set of devices including controllers, analog I/O, digital I/O, and ethernet adapters with more devices to come.

Add multiple devices at the same time

Systems come in all sizes. And we want to make you as efficient as possible. One of the ways we’re doing that is delivering on a feature that allows you to bulk-add devices to speed your development time.​

Import a Studio 5000 Logix Designer project

Sometimes you want to start designing your control system with a blank canvas; but sometimes you want to start from a known good state. That’s why we’re delivering the ability to import an existing Studio 5000 Logix Designer project into the FactoryTalk Design Studio environment. Some things will look familiar, and some workflows will be different. We encourage you to explore and experiment so you can start to understand the value of this new cloud-based design tool.

Import an IntelliCENTER lineup

As part of the device catalog expansion, IntelliCENTER® configuration and monitoring software for your CENTERLINE® motor control center will be integrated into the FactoryTalk Design Studio environment. Along with that comes a significant lineup of related hardware devices.
