- For
- Studio 5000 users reviewing or editing Logix projects
- Worth noticing
- The sample project is explicitly labeled a fictional plant; the page says edits stay in a reviewable working copy.
Field notes
The page lists .L5X and .ACD as the project formats Orbis opens locally, with Windows 10 or 11, 64-bit, required. It says the installer is per-user and needs no administrator rights. Claude Code and Codex are presented as the agent options, and using either requires signing in with that provider; Orbis says it does not store project data or send it to an Orbis server.
