Super Compact Size

A control unit a mere 25mm in width. Even expanded to I/O 128 points, the width is still only 105mm. The attachment area is the smallest in its class.

The control unit's dimensions are: W25* x H90 x D60mm. Also, the I/O unit can be expanded to a maximum of 128-points. Even so, the size is still only W105 x H90 x D60mm, a super compact design that breaks all previous common sense rules on small-scale PLCs. With the smallest-ever attachment area, the FP0 is perfect for installation in machines, facilities, and control boards where miniaturization is progressing even further.

*30mm width limited to I/O 32-points control unit.

Choose among 3 types of attachment

Either 10 Points or the Maximum of 128 Points

Because of its super compact size and high capabilities, the units are useful in a wide variety of applications.

The photo illustrates adding three I/O 32-point expansion units to an I/O 32-point control unit, yielding 128 points.

Supply voltage 24VDC.

Easy Expansion

The expansion unit can be attached easily without any cables.

The expansion unit can easily be attached directly to the control unit. Special expansion cables, backplanes, and so forth, are unnecessary as the expansion unit employs a stacking system that uses expansion connectors and locking levers on the surface of the unit itself.

(Maximum possible expansion is three units)

High specifications for both speed and capacity

0.9µs per basic instruction. Pulse catch and interrupt input functions meet the need for high-speed response.

High-speed execution

Execution speed of 0.9µs per basic instruction. 500 steps program yields a scanning time of 1ms, which means the FP0 boosts the fastest processing time among the products of this class.

• Internal processing in the FP0

Pulse catch function

Can read pulses as short as 50µs, which greatly facilitates sensor input.

Interrupt input function

Accurate processing, unaffected by scan time

• Interrupt input function

• Pulse catch function

Large capacity

A top-class large 5k and 10k steps program capacity housed within a compact body. Furthermore, data capacity for internal devices like the data register is also ample. The unit's high performance is even suited to complicated controls and controls with multiple amounts of data.

FP0 functions

Equipped with 2-axis independent positioning and high-speed counter for support of PWM output.

Pulse output function

(For transistor output type only) The unit comes equipped with 2 channels for the output of up to 10kHz pulses (5kHz during 2-channel output). Since these two channels can be separately controlled, the PLC is also suitable for independent 2-axis positioning. Setting automatic trapezoid control, automatic return to home position and JOG operation are made very easy by using instructions specially designed for such operations.

Positioning control is a breeze with the auto trapezoid control command!

High-speed counter function

The high-speed counter is prepared for 4 channels in single phase, and 2 channels in 2-phase. In single phase, the 4-channel total is 10kHz, and in 2-phase the 2-channel total is 2kHz total speed, making the unit suitable for conveyer control, inverter control, and so forth using an encoder.

PWM output function

Its PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) output function makes it possible to provide temperature control with a single compact FP0 unit. (For transistor output type only)

Serial communication function

• The FP0’s second RS232C port (types C10CRS, C14CRS, C16C, C32C, and T32C) allows direct connection to computers and operation display panels. Also, bi-directional data communication with barcode readers and other RS232C devices is made easy.

• Both the relay type and transistor output type control units are optionally equipped with a 2nd RS232C port.

Analogue control function

Analogue control is made simple with four types of analoque modules featuring different numbers of input and output channels. Also, despite the small size, the I/O resolution is a high 1/4000 (12 bits). Support various I/O ranges by setting the DIP switches on the analogue I/O unit for simple operation.

Serial interfaces and modem compatible

Communication – Simple and efficient via two serial interfaces: TOOL-Port and COM-Port (RS232C interface).

Programming interface TOOL-Port (also for communication)

In Computer Link mode, this port offers access to the entire FP0 memory area. For example during data exchange between a host PC running SCADA software and an FP0 PLC, the Windows the communications protocol (MEWTOCOL.COM). Therefore the user can disregard the allocation of data ranges and transfer parameters, because there is no additional programming required. The programmer is thus free to concentrate exclusively on the project application requirements.

based MEWNET-DDE Server assumes total control of

Communication Interface COM-Port

(flexible with two modes of operation, Computer Link and General Purpose) In addition to the Computer Link communication possibilities described above, the optional integrated RS232C COM-Port in the FP0 CPU module (types FP0-C10CRS, FP0-C14CRS, FP0-C16C, FP0-C32C and FP0-T32C) offers flexible programming i.e. General Purpose. In this configuration it is possible to realise communication connections with different RS232C peripheral devices, e.g. Bar Code Readers, slave devices, printers, measurement sensors or telecommunication transmitters, etc.

Communication Interface COM-Port

Freely programmable RS232C interface for CPU modules type FP0-C10CRS, FP0-C14CRS, FP0-C16C, FP0-C32C and FP0-T32C

Programming Interface TOOL-Port

For programming, and additionally Master/Slave communication, using MEWTOCOL COM (Matsushita protocol)

Modem compatible

Even modem communication function is built into this compact body. Using a single telephone line, programming maintenance can be carried out in remote facilities. With C-NET, multiple FPO units can be connected.

Easier maintenance than ever before

Maintenance saving

Program memory uses EEPROM. In addition, programs can be changed even in RUN mode!

■ Overwrite function in RUN mode

It is possible to overwrite a program while the FP0 is running, such as during program debugging and startup adjustments.

■ Backup battery unnecessary

The program memory uses EEPROM. The program and device contents can be stored without a backup battery, and even programming for a machine builder is safe.

■ Password function

A password function can be set in order to change a program. Limited to people authorized to make program changes, protection can be guaranteed better than ever.

■ Input/output verification LED

Every unit is equipped with LED I/O indicators, housed within a compact body. Input/output status can be verified at a glance.

Simple installation

Comes with either terminal block or connector. Either type is easy to connect to wiring by simply removing the terminal section.

Terminal block

Terminal type can be plugged straight in without resorting to crimping (made by Phoenix Contact Co.). Can handle wires from

0.3 to 1.25mm

Compatible models

FP0-C10RS, C10CRS, C14CRS, E8RS, E16RS

MIL connector

Unit connectors can be used with 16-points and 32-points units. Due to the loose-wiring, pressure contact type design, wiring is easy without the need for insulation. (MIL-C-83503)

Compatible models

FP0-C16T/C16P/C16CT/C16CP, C32T/C32P/C32CT/C32CP, E16T/E16P, E32T/E32P, FP0-T32CP/T32CT
