20.Story of Rockwell with Boeing
announced today that they have signed a definitive agreement under which Boeing will acquire Rockwell's Aerospace and Defense businesses.
In the merger, Boeing will issue approximately $860 million of its common stock and retain $2.165 billion of Rockwell debt and certain retiree obligations of Rockwell. Effective date is expected to be later this year.
Immediately prior to the merger, Rockwell will transfer its Automation, Avionics, Communications, Semiconductor Systems and Automotive Components Systems businesses to a new company, which will keep the Rockwell name. Shares of the new Rockwell will be distributed to Rockwell shareowners just prior to the effectiveness of the merger on a one-for-one basis. The new Rockwell will be listed on the New York Stock Exchange.
The new name of the acquired units will be Boeing North American, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of The Boeing Company. The Rockwell Aerospace and Defense units employ approximately 21,000. Boeing Defense & Space Group has approximately 30,000 employees.
The transaction, which is intended to be tax free, is subject to approval by Rockwell's shareowners and debtholders, certain regulatory approvals and other provisions generally required in similar transactions. A special Rockwell shareowners' meeting will be held in November and the transaction is expected to be completed shortly thereafter.
Phil Condit, Boeing president and chief executive officer, said, "The assets and capabilities we are acquiring are an extremely good strategic fit with our long-term objective of creating shareholder value. This merger accelerates us on our way to achieving our 20-year vision, which calls for Boeing to be a fully integrated aerospace company designing, producing and supporting commercial airplanes, defense systems, and defense and civil space systems.
He noted the intent is to grow the business base and expand opportunities. Although there will be some efficiencies that will be identified by combining the organizations, Boeing expects minor employment impact.
"My desire," Condit said, "is to absorb any necessary employment adjustments through normal attrition and by retraining employees to take advantage of new business or career opportunities within Boeing. Both of our organizations have records of strong performance and we expect to learn new best practices that will bring increased product value to our customers."
Donald R. Beall, Rockwell's chairman and chief executive officer, said, "This is an historic step in the continuing transformation of Rockwell, which has been shifting strategic focus to higher growth commercial and international businesses, with a particular focus on electronics. The new Rockwell will be essentially debt free and well positioned for significant investments in our strong franchises in Automation, Semiconductor Systems, Avionics, Communications and Automotive Components Systems businesses, including internal development and both large and small acquisitions."
Beall added, "Our Aerospace and Defense businesses, with their strong franchises, solid management, excellent technologies and outstanding employees, have made strong contributions to Rockwell's success through their world class performance. The benefits to those businesses, their customers and their employees of the alliance with Boeing are compelling. The complementary strengths of Boeing and our Aerospace and Defense businesses create a leading global competitor in this industry."
The major product groups of the acquired divisions are: ICBM systems; tactical missiles; sensors; B-1B bomber; commercial aerostructures; aircraft and helicopter modifications; rocket propulsion including the Space Shuttle main engine; Space Station electric power; airborne laser and electro-optics; Space Shuttle integration, logistics and operations; Global Positioning System satellites; space defense and advanced programs.
The Boeing Defense & Space Group encompasses virtually all of the company's business with the U.S. Department of Defense, NASA and international defense customers. Defense and space programs include: helicopters, military aircraft, advanced electronic systems, space transportation and the International Space Station. The Group is organized into five divisions; Information & Electronic Systems, Missiles & Space, Helicopters, Military Airplanes and Product Support.
The Boeing Defense & Space Group had 1995 sales of $5.6 billion. The acquired Rockwell units had 1995 sales of $3.2 billion.
The new Boeing North American will report to Jerry King, president of the Boeing Defense & Space Group. Boeing North American will be headed by John McLuckey, who is currently president and chief operating officer of Rockwell's Aerospace and Defense businesses.

20. ROCKWELL'S AEROSPACE PROFITS CUT BY END OF B-1B
Operating earnings of Rockwell International's aerospace segment dropped to $418 million for fiscal 1989 from $493 million last year. Rockwell said returns from the B-1B bomber program were down $140 million ($.35 per share) in 1989 due primarily to the completion of aircraft production in April 1988.
The company's B-1B sales were down $500 million for the year from $1.360 billion in FY '88. In addition, it said it had a higher profit rate in 1988.
RI's aerospace sales totaled $3.909 billion for the year, including $986 million in the fourth quarter
Boeing buying Rockwell units
Aerospace giant to pay $3.2B for Rockwell's defense and space units
In the latest move toward consolidation in the aerospace and defense industry, Boeing agreed to issue $860 million in common stock and retain $2.165 billion in Rockwell's debt along with certain pension obligations. "The assets and capabilities we are acquiring are an extremely good strategic fit with our long-term objective of creating shareholder value," Boeing President and Chief Executive Officer Philip Condit said in a statement. "This merger accelerates us on our way to achieving our 20-year vision, which calls for Boeing to be a fully integrated aerospace company."
The Rockwell units will become a wholly- owned subsidiary of Seattle-based Boeing and will be called Boeing North American Inc., adding roughly 21,000 workers to Boeing's current defense and space workforce of 30,000.
Rockwell's defense and aerospace units are expected to add $3.2 billion in annual sales to the Boeing Defense & Space Group's current annual sales of $5.6 billion.

Software Safety Assurance of Programmable Logic
Programmable Logic (PLC, FPGA, ASIC) devices are hybrids - hardware devices that are designed and programmed like software. As such, they fall in an assurance gray area. Programmable Logic is usually tested and verified as hardware, and the software aspects are ignored, potentially leading to safety or mission success concerns
C++ adds, subtracts, multiplies and divides, as does PLC code. Some PLCs,

RICHARDSON, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 22, 1995--Rockwell (NYSE:ROK) has received a $26.5-million add-on award for the production phase of the U.S. Navy's High Power Transmit Set (HPTS), a critical communications element for strategic forces.
The add-on contract was awarded by the Naval Air Systems Command, Washington , D.C.
The HPTS system consists of a very low frequency/low frequency (VLF/LF) 200 Kw solid-state power amplifier and dual trailing wire antenna system, which operates over a frequency range of 17 to 60 kilohertz.
``We are extremely pleased that the Navy is extending HPTS Low Rate Initial Production to include fiscal year (FY) 1995, which further solidifies Rockwell's leadership in the VLF market,'' said Ken Medlin, vice president and general manager of Rockwell's Communication Systems Division (CSD), which received the contract.
``Rockwell has been providing quality VLF systems to the Navy for over 30 years,'' Medlin added.
HPTS improves the reliability of systems that provide survivable communication links from the Navy's E-6A TACAMO aircraft to the U.S.
The scope of the HPTS FY-95 production provides for the fabrication and test of two 200 Kw HPTS systems for the TACAMO E-6A aircraft. The contract also includes the fabrication of two installation kits by Rockwell's North American Aircraft Modification Center at Shreveport , La.
The HPTS will be built, assembled and tested by Rockwell's CSD operation in Richardson El Paso , Texas
The Navy's future plans call for the procurement of 11 additional HPTS systems in FY-96 through FY-98. Rockwell is a diversified, high technology company holding leadership market positions in automation, avionics, aerospace, defense electronics, telecommunications, automotive components and graphics systems, with annual worldwide sales of more than $12 billion.

PLC MicroLogix 1500 and1200 utilized as GSM Mobile phone RTU’s
The advanced ASCII communication capabilities available in MicroLogix 1200 and 1500 controllers can be utilized in various applications. MicroLogix systems have been implemented in Australia
communicating via GSM Modems mobile phone over standard cell phone networks.
The 900/1800MHZ band GSM, mobile phone (and now CDMA) cell phone network in Australia
text messages from Mobile phones anywhere in Australia
The installed controllers are being used to sense alarm and status information, which in turn, is transmitted to a cell phone number upon a pre-condition occurrence in memory. The text message transmitted appears on the receiver’s cell phone display in a similar method to an alphanumeric pager.
While not implemented in our current installations, the receiver could also enter text on their cell phone and transmit back to the controller.
The controller upon receipt of this message could decode the sender’s phone number and also the message and perform a string comparison to find an identical string of text in memory. Once found, the controller could take appropriate action within it’s program, such as turning devices on or off.
This would enable operators to respond to some low level alarms from a remote location via cell phone, and take appropriate action such as clearing or acknowledging low level alarms. If the SIM card contained within the GSM modem mobile phone (connected to the Micro) is data enabled, it could also log on and program the MicroLogix over the cell phone network at 9600 baud. (This has already been successfully demonstrated.) in the US US
There are current successful installations of both MicroLogix 1500 and 1200 units implemented as RTU’s running off of GSM modems mobile phone transmitting text to operator’s cell phones.

Introduction
35.To make it easier to navigate through a function block routine, divide the
routine into a series of sheets.
• Sheets help you organize and find your function blocks. They do not
affect the order in which the function blocks execute.
• When the routine executes, all the sheets execute.
• In general, use one sheet for each device
Choose a Tag Name for an Element
36.Each function block uses a tag to store configuration and status information
about the instruction.
When you add function block instruction, RSLogix 5000 PLC software
automatically creates a tag for the block. You can use this tag as is,
rename the tag, or assign a different tag.
• For IREFs and OREFs, you have to create a tag or assign an existing tag.
