XC3 Series PLC



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 Ladder Logic and Instruction List

We will program our 14 point PLC for  $99

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 $99 plus the cost of the PLC and programming cable.



Expansion Modules
The PLC has an expansion outlet which allows the user to add analog input, analog output, 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
