Before You Start

Installation environment

Do not use the FPΣ unit where it will be exposed to the following:

Direct sunlight and ambient temperatures outside the range of 0_Cto55_C/32_F to 131_F.

Ambient humidity outside the range of 30% to 85% RH and sudden temperature changes causing condensation.

Inflammable or corresive gas. Excessive vibration or shock. Excessive airborne dust, metal particles or salts. Water or oil in any from including spray or mist. Benzine, paint thinner, alcohol or other organic solvents

or strong alkaline solutions such as ammonia or caustic soda.

Influence from power transmission lines, high voltage equipment, power cables, power equipment, radio transmitters, or any other equipment that would generate high switching surges.

Static electricity

Before touching the unit, always touch a grounded piece of metal in order to discharge static electricity.

In dry locations, excessive static electricity can cause problems.

Cleaning

Do not use thinner based cleaners because they deform the unit case and fade the colors.

Power supplies

An insulated power supply with an internal protective circuit should be used. The power supply for the control unit operation is a non-insulated circuit, so if an incorrect voltage is directly applied, the internal circuit may be damaged or destroyed.

If using a power supply without a protective circuit, power should be supplied through a protective element such as a fuse.

Before You Start

FPΣ

Power supply sequence

Have the power supply sequence such that the power supply of the control unit turns off before the power supply for input and output.

If the power supply for input and output is turned off before the power supply of the control unit, the control unit will detect the input fluctuations and may begin an unscheduled operation.

Before turning on the power

Whenturningonthepowerfor the first time, be sure to taketheprecautionsgivenbelow.

When performing installation, check to make sure that there are no scraps of wiring, particularly conductive fragments, adhering to the unit.

Verify that the power supply wiring, I/O wiring, and power supply voltage are all correct.

Sufficiently tighten the installation screws and terminal screws.

Set the mode selector to PROG. mode.

Before entering a program

Be sure to perform a program clear operation before entering a program.

Operation procedure when using FPWIN GR Ver.2

Procedure:

1. Select “On

line Edit Mode” on the FPWIN GR

“On l

ine” menu.

2. Select “Cl

ear Program” on the “Edit” menu.

3. When the confirmation dialog box is displayed, click on “Y

Before You Start

FPΣ

Request concerning program storage

To prevent the accidental loss of programs, the user should consider the following measures.

Drafting of documents

To avoid accidentally losing programs, destroying files, or overwriting the contents of a file, documents should be printed out and then saved.

Specifying the password carefully

The password setting is designed to avoid programs being accidentally overwritten. If the password is forgotten, however, it will be impossible to overwrite the program even if you want to. Also, if a password is forcibly bypassed, the program is deleted. When specifying the password, note it in the specifications manual or in another safe location in case it is forgotten at some point.

1.1 Features and Functions of the Unit

Powerful control capabilities

All of the functions of a mid-scale PLC are packed into the compact body size of the 32-point type FP0. A program capacity of 12 k steps is provided as a standard feature, so you never have to worry about how much memory is left as you’re programming. In addition, 32 k words are reserved for data registers, so large volumes of data can be compiled and multiple operations can be processed without running out of memory.

A full range of communication functions

Using the Tool port (RS232C) provided as a standard feature on the main unit, communication can be carried out with a display panel or computer. Additionally, communication cassettes with RS232C and RS485 interfaces are available as an option. Installing a 2-channel RS232C type communication cassette in the FPΣ makes it possible to connect two devices with RS232C port. A full lineup of communication functions means you can also work with 1:N communication and PLC link function (up to 16 units).

Status indicator LEDs

These LEDs display the current mode of operation or the occurrence of an error.

LED LED and operation status

RUN (green) Lights when in the RUN mode and indicates that the program is being executed.

It flashes during forced input/output. (The RUN and PROG LEDs flash alternately.)

PROG. (green) Lights when in the PROG. mode and indicates that operation has stopped.

It flashes during forced input/output. (The RUN and PROG LEDs flash alternately.)

ERROR/ALARM (red) Flashes when an error is detected during the self-diagnostic function.

Lights if a hardware error occurs, or if operation slows because of the program, and the watchdog timer is activated.

RUN/PROG. mode switch

This switch is used to change the operation mode of the PLC.

Switch position Operation mode

RUN (upward) This sets the RUN mode. The program is executed and operation begins. PROG. (downward) This sets the PROG. mode.The operation stops. In this mode, programming canbe

done using tools.

When performing remote switching from the programming tool, the position of the mode switch and the actual mode of operation may differ. Verify the mode with the status indicator LED. Otherwise, restart the FPΣ and change the mode of operation with the RUN/PROG. mode switch.

Communication status LEDs

These display the communication status of the COM.1 and COM.2 ports.
