XGB PLC SFC Quick Simulator Tutorial

The PLC Simulator is a valuable tool for testing and troubleshooting Sequential Function Chart (SFC) programs within the XG5000 programming software. It enables users to simulate the functionality of a Programmable Logic Controller (LS Electric PLC) without needing any physical hardware. This feature makes it an excellent resource for both novices and seasoned programmers. Furthermore, the XG5000 programming software is free, allowing you to verify your logic before investing in hardware.
In this session, we will leverage the PLC Simulator within the XG5000 programming software to explore Sequential Function Charts (SFC). The graphical step and transition views significantly ease the troubleshooting process for SFC programs. Although SFC programming is frequently underappreciated, it stands out as an effective method for program development. This approach allows you to translate your program's sequence of operations (Step 3 of 5 in the program development process) directly into the PLC.
The simulation and monitoring screens will aid you in visualizing and refining your logical sequence of operations, concentrating on one section of your logic at a time. During this session, we will demonstrate how to simulate the Start-Stop circuit we previously developed in the XG5000 programming software before transferring it to the actual XGB PLC. Let’s get started!
