1)
Device/Memory Area
KGLWIN Project and XG5000 Project are different from each other in device type and memory area.
Since XG5000 can use all the devices KGLWIN uses, and its memory area larger than that of KGLWIN, it
brings the exact details of KGLWIN when converted. However, the user may need to modify the details
for effective application of the memory area, refer to XG5000 memory or using the device function used.
2)
Change Variable Name
In XG5000, a blank or a special character can not be used in the variable name, and figure can not be
used at the start of variable name. Thus, when the project is converted, the area applicable to the special
character or the blank will be converted to ‘_’ automatically. In addition, if the start of the variable name is
with a figure, ‘_’ will be automatically attached in front of figure. If a variable name which was seen in
KGLWIN is not seen when the project converted, carefully check if ‘_’ is included.
KGLWIN or XG5000 uses the Flag Variable respectively. Flags (F device area) are somewhat different
between KGLWIN and XG5000. Accordingly the variable name applicable to the flag will not convert but
follow the XG5000 variable name.
XG5000 regards BIT, WORD type of T, C device area as a variable. If the variables of both BIT and
WORD type are registered in KGLWIN, it shall be selected which variable to use during the conversion.
3)
Rung/Line comment
Rung comment and Line comment will be converted 1 to 1. However, since the step number can be
changed while KGLWIN project is converted to XG5000 project, the location of Rung or Line comment in
KGLWIN may be different from the location in XG5000.
4)
Basic Parameters
Basic Parameters of KGLWIN Project will be converted to XG5000 Project only in common area based
on the PLC unit.
Example: If K1000S is converted to XGK-CPUH, latch area, timer limit, watch-dog timer, PLC
operation mode, etc. will be converted.
5)
Program Converted
If any error occurs on KGLWIN project file, a warning message will appear.
