1.Introduction

1.1Overview

1)Scope of this manual

This manual gives details on all aspects of operation and programming for FX1S, FX1N, FX2N and FX2NC programmable controllers (PLCs). For all information relating to the PLC hardware and installation, refer to the appropriate manual supplied with the unit.

2)How to use this manual

This manual covers all the functions of the highest specification Programmable (Logic) Controller (PLC). For this reason, the following indicator is included in relevant section titles to show which PLCs that section applies to;

FX1S

FX1N

FX2N

FX2NC

Shaded boxes indicate the applicable PLC type

-

“FX1S)

- All FX1S PLCs

 

-

“FX1N

- All FX1N PLCs

 

-

“FX2N

- All FX2N PLCs

 

-

“FX2NC” - All FX2NC PLCs

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

If an indicator box is half shaded, as shown to the

left, this means that not all the functions described in

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

the current section apply to that PLC. The text

 

 

 

 

 

 

explains in further detail or makes an independent

 

 

 

 

 

 

reference.

If there are no indicator boxes then assume the section applies to all PLC types unless otherwise stated.

3)FX family

This is a generic term which is often used to describe all Programmable Controllers without identifying individual types or model names.

4)CPU version numbers and programming support

As Mitsubishi upgrades each model different versions have different capabilities. - Please refer to section 1.4 for details about peripheral support for each model.
