Practical Tips and Techniques
The C-More CM5 HMI programming software will allow tags to be imported. This can save you work hours when establishing communications with different PLC controllers. Instead of creating and labeling tags in the PLC and the HMI, we can export them from the PLC and import them into the HMI. This saves you time, money, … Read more
PLC Simulator is a convenient tool for testing and troubleshooting structured text (ST) programs in the XG5000 programming software. It allows you to simulate the operation of a programmable logic controller (LS Electric PLC) without needing actual hardware. This makes it a valuable asset for beginners and experienced programmers. We will use the PLC simulator … Read more
Programming an XGB PLC using a Structure Text (ST) can be efficient for control engineers and automation professionals. Structure Text is a low-level programming language commonly used for PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) programming. It offers a robust, structured approach to designing control logic for industrial automation systems. ST programming is sometimes a more straightforward method … Read more

The IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission) XGB PLC, developed by LS Electric, offers a convenient programming interface using the XG5000 software in ladder diagram format. This widely used industrial PLC language is known for its simplicity and intuitiveness. The PLC can be programmed in four of the five official languages specified in the IEC standards. Previously, … Read more
We will be wiring discrete inputs and outputs to an XGB PLC. This will be a lighted pushbutton start and stop. In industrial automation, Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs) are crucial in controlling various machines and processes. One of the most widely used PLCs is the LS Electric XGB series, which is known for its reliability … Read more
