A: Yes, absolutely. Rockwell versions are side-by-side installable. However, install V20 first , then later versions. rslogix 5000 firmware 20.12

• The Fix: v20.12 was released as the definitive firmware for legacy hardware (1756-L7x, 1769-L3xER, 1769-L2x).
• Key Rule: You cannot flash a 5570 controller to v21 or higher. 20.12 is its maximum supported firmware.
