Equipped with an independent comment memory

Equipped with an independent comment memory separate from the program memory. All of the 100,000 I/O comments, 5000 lines of line-space comments and 5000 lines of remark comments are saved in the FP-X together with the programs.

Input comments do not decrease the program capacity.

High-speed scan at 0.32µsec for instruction processing

High-speed processing is often required for small-scale equipment control such as serial data communication, network construction or PID temperature control. High- speed scanning at 0.32µsec/step (basic instruction) easily meets such require- ments.

E.g. With a 5k step program consisting of 40% basic instructions and 60% applied instructions (data transfer and operation instructions)

Abundant number of I/O points—Maximum 300

(up to 382 points possible by using FP0 expansion units and add-on cassettes)

When the user is unable to predict the number of I/O points required in the future for his machine or equipment, he may be unsure when selecting a PLC model. FP-X solves user concerns by providing a maximum of 300 I/O channels. This number can even be increased up to 382 points by using the add-on cassettes and FP0 expansion units.

Up to 8 expansion units (E16R, E30R, EFP0) can be connected.
