This dissertation presents the development ofPC-based system, Web-based system and Human Machine Interface for the project 'PC-Based and Web-Based System for Controlling XY Robot '. The objective of this project is to create systems that are capable of controlling an XY Robot through Human Machine Interface (HMI). For that matter, the project is being divided into three sections; the development of PC-based system, the development of Web-based system and the development of Human Machine Interface. PC-based system is aim to control the robot through HMI through serial link communication. As for Web-based system, its aim is to control the robot through HMI over the Ethernet connection. For this system, its HMI is being made into an interactive web page. Users can access its server's web site for the purpose of controlling the robot. The devices used in this project are mainly the OMRON Factory Automation devices. Therefore, the software used come from OMRON as well. The software essential for this project are ;Visual Basic 6.0, ONC Active XControl, FA Components, Data Agent and SYSMAC Compolet for HMI and web application development, FinsGateway for device communication and CX Programmer for robot system programming. Both systems are developed by designing its' respective system architecture and followed by devices settings and configuration. The systems are deem successful when communication is established between the end user and PLC which contains the program of the robot.
