XC3 series of PLC
The
XC3 series from Rockhood features a large number of functions, large
memory capacity, small size and fast scan times
Although economically priced, these PLC's have been built and designed
with motion control in mind. Basic features in the XC series
programmable logic controller are
• Max 1024 I/O points.
• Program's capacity is 30K
• Two high speed counter inputs, the highest frequency is
200K.
• 2 pulse outputs for stepper or servo motor control the max
pulse output is 400K
• PWM Control
• support for CAN bus, Modbus and TCP/IP Ethernet.
Other features include
• Free Software
• Programmable in

We
will program our 14 point
PLC for $199
Do you have an application for one of our PLC's
but do not know how to program in Ladder Logic. Then take advantage of
our offer to program it for you. Email us your requirements and if it
will fit on our 14 point PLC it will only cost you $199 plus the cost of
the PLC and programming cable.

Expansion Modules
The PLC has an expansion outlet which
allows the user to add Analog,
I/O,
RTD and
Thermocouple modules. Communication modules include Ethernet and
Profibus.
HMI Displays
Our selection of new HMI Text
Displays and Touchscreens will interface easily with the XC3
and XC5 PLC's
Motor Control
The XC3 has functions to control Stepper and Servo motors using the 2
high speed pulse outputs. The functions require the user to input 4
parameters which are maximum frequency, total output pulse number,
add/minus speed for ramping up/down to speed and the Y output number.
The pulse output is not affected by the scan cycle. Please note this is
not available on the XC3-14 models
The XC3 also has a PWM function for generating pulse width modulation
signals.
Low frequency output can be output at any Y output. The output
frequency is limited to 0-200Hz
XCP Software and Programming
The XCP software's edit environment allows
the user the choice of programming in Ladder Logic or instruction list
programming.
The software is fast and easy to use. It allows for commenting of the
variables so the rungs are easy to understand.
It has an online monitor which allows the user to monitor the program
on the ladder or open the data window to modify or monitor the data
variables
The XCP software also features a rich instruction list which allow
calculations in integer, long integer or floating point. Other
instructions include ordinal control, data manipulation,
interrupts, communications and motion control.
Copy, cut and paste of instruction and ladder programming allows easy
editing of programs
With the software we provide a few example programs showing you how to
use timers, read digital inputs and write to digital outputs, control
stepper motors and generate PWM signals
