Rockwell Automation URL Shortcuts Worth Bookmarking

Rockwell Automation runs a rok.auto shortlink system that gets you straight to the knowledgebase, PCDC, literature library, and other tools without hunting through the main site. Here's the list.

Dennis Murphy · 13 January 2025

Rockwell Automation’s website is large and the navigation changes regularly. If you’re trying to get to the knowledgebase or PCDC quickly, hunting through menus wastes time. Rockwell has a shortlink system under the rok.auto domain that jumps you straight to the right place, and it’s not well publicised.

Here are the ones worth having in your bookmarks.

These are particularly useful when you’re on site and need to pull up a manual or check compatibility quickly without trawling through search results.

I’ll update this list as I find more. If you’ve got one I haven’t listed, send it through.
