4.2.3.8. Programming PLC with Computers
To program the PLC with a computer requires a supporting software. The supporting software for Omron PLC is Syswin (we will learn is SYSWIN V3.4.), LSS, CX Program and others. For siemen PLC ; Micro Win S7, S5, and others. For Mitsubishi PLC; Melsoft series Dev 7, Médoc, and others. For LG PLC; KGL_Win, GM_Win, and others. Excess programming PLC with a computer is very much, among others; can be done editing programs using ladder diagrams or with mnemonic codes. Can also to upload programs, download programs, monitoring programs, detect errors in the PLC and many other functions. Communication tools used for this purpose is a RS232C serial port.
Syswin Software V3.4 operating instructions.
a. Creating new programs
• Run Syswin 3.4 so that will be raised ladder editing window as shown in Figure 7.1. If observed, sections on the left contains the components or conditions ladder diagrams, summary or summary shown in Figure 7.2. While the top is used for file management (saving, reading, etc.), the management ladder and means of communication with the PLC.

b. Giving Labels And Comments On Network
Label and comment on each network aims to give the title of Project and comments relating to the operations and methode at the network, the way is as follows:
• Highlight and then double-click on Main 1, then label the block1 (example: ON / OFF), write comments relating to the control circuit functions on the network and then click Close.

• As editor
• Every network or
• Every group
For general settings, can be done:
• Print step numbers in the margin
• Print Statement List
• Print Address List
For Cross reference can be activated or not, by checking in field of Cross Reference with Fully or compactly. For Page Breaks can be activated or not by checking in field of Enable page breaks and can be selected:
• Every network
• Every group or
• Every block
Transfer Program
a. Download Program & Test Running
Download program is to transfer the programs that you have made from your computer to PLC, there are two prerequisites that must be met, namely: Hardware requirements and Software requirements. Hardware requirements are interface from a computer to PLC must be connected, then Software requirement are PLC mode must be on condition OFF / STOP, the way is as follows:
• Select Project menu - Communications, select Port/Com and the appropriate Interface - Click Test on PLC until Status is Connected then Ok (Enter)
• Click Phone icon (sF9) / Communications Connect
• Click Icon of change mode PLC (sF10) on position Stop or Program
• Click Download menu - click Download program to PLC
• To Test Running after transfer - Click on PLC Mode (sF10) - select Run Mode - then Ok
