You have to remember that PLC5s are using Octal Addressing; this is the reason a PLC5 16-bit word ranges are 1-7 and 10-17.
The SLC platform uses decimal addressing hence up until bit 7 (inclusive) the addressing is identical, however, PLC5 X:Y/10 becomes SLC x:y/8, PLC5 X:Y/11 - SLC x:y/9 and so on until PLC5 X:Y/17 becomes SLC x:y/15; you might need to relabel the field wiring though...
