Most important highlights at a glance

FP-X series

Programming according to the international standard IEC 61131-3

FPWIN Pro is the Panasonic programming software developed according to the international standard IEC 61131-3 (for Windows 98, NT V4.0, 2000, ME, XP or Vista). This new version is a result of experience gained over many years. We were one of the first PLC manufacturers to offer IEC 61131-3 programming software, and we are a leading member of the international organization PLCopen.

Input and output variables	Multiple address assigment	Local variables are	Type safe programming	Comfortable programming
are defined once in the	is caught automatically	allocated automatically	using simple or complex	in the graphical LD editor
global variable list	by the compiler	by the compiler	data types	(ladder diagram)

Functions can be saved in libraries for future reuse

Navigator with tree representation of called functions provides an overview even for very complex projects

The SFC editor (Sequential Function Chart) allows you to easily visualize processes

Additional window for monitoring and forcing variables

Structuring with selection statements

Using loops for running through incom- ing data…

…or arrays.

Using allias names for PLC- independent access on the special data registers, e.g.

RTC

The most important highlights at a glance:

1 software for all FP Series PLCs.

5 programming languages (instruction list, ladder diagram, function block diagram, sequential function chart, structured text) available for all PLCs.

Program organization units, task and project management provide clear structure.

Reuse of ready-made functions and function blocks saves time for programming and debugging.

Online monitoring and diagnostics.

Forcing—turning off input and output contacts via the PC.

Extensive comments—online documentation created hand in hand with the program.

Modem communication for remote programming, service and diagnostics.

Extensive comments—online documentation created hand in hand with the program.

6 languages are supported: English, German, French, Italian, Spanish and Japanese.

01/2008

1 instruction for different data types (overloaded instructions)

Long variable names make the program self- explanatory

Special functions for con- trolling the SFC program from another program

The ST editor (Structured Text) solves complex programming tasks

Using STRING functions for analyzing incoming data…

…or for generating formatted output strings
