Optimized communication function

Masterless communication using the FP

S (Sigma)

Four types of communication

cassettes enable:

Efficient connection to serial



devices.

Transmission speeds of up to



115.2kbits/s.

Long transmission distance of



up to 1200m.

In addition, the green screw



terminal is removable for easy

wiring.

With the RS232C type communications cassette:

Efficient connection with other control devices helps to save space!

Enables connection to devices with RS232C interface, such as a programmable



display panel, image processing device and other devices.

When used as a tool port, up to 3 external devices can be connected.



A 2-channel type communication cassette is used.



With the RS485 type communication cassette:

More links than you imagined a compact PLC could achieve

(2048 link relays / 256-word link data registers)

Can be used to share product type data between different machines.



Can be used for interlocking between different machines.



Easy wiring between PLCs with twin-core cabling.



Even if a station goes into a power-off state, communications between



the other stations continue. The failed station can be integrated quickly

and smoothly into the network in the event of recurrence.

Connection to external devices using RS485 interface

Enables connection to external devices, such as temperature controllers



or Eco Power Meter, that are equipped with RS485 interface.

Transmission speed: Max. 115.2kbits/s.



Transmission distance: Max. 1200m.



Control is possible using commercially available RS485 devices.
