LS Electric PLCs - PLC Units

The PLC CPU is the brain of the control system and contains a microprocessor, memory storage, and other integrated circuits that are used to execute the control program, store logic data, and communicate to external devices. PLC CPUs follow a repeated sequence of operations that perform those functions and other internal processes. Below is an example of a typical PLC scan.

LS Electric XGB PLCs offer embedded high-density I/O, and support for high-speed signals. These PLCs also include several communication ports, I/O expansion options, and many advanced capabilities especially in the motion control arena.

• Super compact, approximately 1.63" (W) x 3.54" (H) x 2.36" (D) 
  
• 10/100Mbps Ethernet port for Modbus TCP/IP communication
• Dual RS-485/RS-232C serial port
• On board USB port for instant, hassle-free connections
• Up to 32 discrete I/O points built in (16 inputs, 16 outputs) , types of I/O dependent on model
• Specific inputs can be configured as (up to) 4 high-speed counter inputs and presets
• Up to 6 high-speed outputs (at up to 200kHz) that can support 2- or 6-axis pulse/direction motion control (depending on model)
• Up to 400 position table moves per axis in a single standalone PLC; direct start motion is also available to move an axis without using a position table
• Expandable up to 56 local analog I/O channels or up to 256 local discrete I/O points using up to 7 expansion modules
• XEL-BSSRT bus couplers can be used to connect additional I/O points and/or to distribute expansion I/O remotely using Ethernet communication
  
• Free IEC-based XG5000 software provides ladder or structured text programming to control various motion control operations including position control, speed control, feed control, circular arc interpolation, linear interpolation, and ellipse interpolation
