69 +**General**
70 +
71 +HMI could communicate with PLC and support many PLC protocols.  It is easy to operate and set communication parameters. This demo shows how to make a communication with PLC device, use WECON LX3V Series PLC as an example.
72 +
73 +**Protocol settings**
74 +
75 +The communication between two devices requires a protocol. The following contents show the steps of protocol settings.
76 +
77 +Please select the protocol, when creating a new project.
78 +
79 +1. Select the COM port for communication;
80 +1. PLC type: It means PLC brand, like WECON;
81 +1. PLC model: It shows the model of PLC, such as LX3V;
82 +
