*Program
upload is easily prohibited by tool software FPWIN.
Once the prohibited status is set with the software
tool FPWIN, the reading or copying of programs from the PLC unit
becomes completely impossible, thereby protecting user's crucial
assets.
In the upload-prohibited condition, program
transfers to the master memory are also prohibited.
Release of an upload-prohibited condition is
possible with a forced release accompanied by a program deletion.
Program updates are easily carried out by transferring
the program in the master memory to FP-X even during an upload-prohibited
condition. The transferred program in FP-X is setup with the same
upload prohibition and permission conditions used in the master
memory.
*An
expensive USB conversion adapter/cable is not necessary for connecting
a PC to the PLC by using a standard USB port.*
A USB direct connection ensures stable and trouble-free
communication by eliminating the conversion adapter and multiple cables.
* USB port is equipped with C30R and C60R.
*Abundant
program capacity - 32 ksteps (16 ksteps for C14R)
The program capacity of 32 ksteps,
exceeding the capacity of most compact PLCs, can flexibly handle a
wide variety of applications requiring future equipment expansion.
An adequate comment area has of course been reserved. Free comment
entry makes the program easy to understand during verification.
Separate memory areas reserved for program memory
and comments do not cause a reduction of program capacity when
comments are entered.
100,000 I/O comment items, 5,000 lines of line-space
comments, 5,000 lines of remark comments - All comments are stored
in the FP-X simultaneously with the program.
*Ultra
high-speed scan at 0.32 µsec 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 0.32 µsec/step (basic instruction) easily meets such requirements.
(Ex.)
In the case of a 5-kstep program
consisting of 35% basic instructions and 65% applied instructions,
Scan time: 1.9 ms (measured time)
*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 cannot predict the number of I/O points
required in the future for his machine or equipment, he is uncertain
in selecting a PLC model. FP-X solves user concerns with a maximum
of 300 I/O channels. The number can even be increased up to 382 points
by using the add-on cassettes and FP0 expansion units.*
(* When E30R becomes available. )
