Description

The <Controller> element in the exported L5X is missing the majority of its standard attributes. A Logix Designer export includes ~20 attributes; the library currently emits only 7, all of them non-essential.

Comparison

Generated by library:

<Controller SerialNumber="16#60E3_5B29" CommPath="" SfcExecutionControl="CurrentActive"
            SfcRestartPosition="MostRecent" SfcLastScan="DontScan"
            CreatedDate="..." ModifiedDate="...">

Expected (Logix Designer export):

<Controller Use="Target" Name="CIPDemo" ProcessorType="1756-L83E"
            MajorRev="35" MinorRev="11" MajorFaultProgram="Fault_Recovery"
