■ Built-in 4-axis pulse outputs (Transistor output type)

Two sets can simultaneously undergo two-axis linear

interpolation.

No complicated speed calculation or programming is required.

Two-axis linear interpolation is available by using the F175 dedicated

instruction. Two sets such as two X-Y tables, for example, can be

simultaneously controlled.

* The port block has S, R, and G terminals for connection.

Operation display panels can also be connected to the tool port.

* Both the relay output and transistor output types of control unit equipped with an RS232C

port are available.

The control unit has an RS232C port for serial

communications.

The RS232C port allows for direct connection to an operation

display panel or a PC. Also, it facilitates bi-directional data

communications with bar-code readers and other RS232C

devices.

When 17 or more FP series units need to be linked, you can link up to 99 units

by using the Modbus function instead of MEWNET-W0. Since each FP0R unit

can be either a master or a slave, a multi-master link can be created by passing

a token from a user program.

■ Labelers: Stopping the motion at a constant distance from the point where

a label end detection signal is triggered

■ Processing machines: Stopping the motion at a constant distance from

the point where a processing object edge detection

signal is triggered, and cut/drill the object

Compatible with both Modbus master and slave RTU.

The motion can be started without a preset target

value. When a stop signal is input, the target value

is set, and the motion is slowed to a stop.

This feature expands applications for the eco-conscious business field,

and is ideal for the control of air conditioners, temperature, and

electrical power.

FP0R

The FP0R operation status can be monitored

on a Web browser.

The FP0R operation status can be monitored on a

Web browser by connecting FP Web-Server2

and FP0R via RS232C and making required

settings using dedicated software (FP Web

Configurator Tool 2).

Contact data can be shared among up to 16 PLC units, including

FP0R, FPΣ, FP-X, FP2/FP2SH, and a mixture of them, without the

need for programs.

■ I/O link unit

This link unit enables FP0R to serve as a slave

station of MEWNET-F (remote I/O system) and

exchange I/O data from 32 input points and 32

output points with a master station without the need

for programs.

Start signal

Stop signal

■ Labelers: Starting the operation at a relatively low acceleration to prevent

tape from breaking

Stopping the operation at high deceleration when detecting the

label end to save the tape

■ Lifts: Optimizing the acceleration and deceleration during ascending and

descending transfers.

Use two FP0R units to control the assembly and transfer sections of a small

machine respectively, connect them via the PLC link, and share one display

The acceleration time and deceleration time can be

individually set.

■ Individual settings for acceleration and deceleration

■ Speed synchronization of transfer or processing equipment.

The target speed can be changed by an external

signal input during the jog operation or trapezoidal

control operation.

■ Changing the speed

(available for F171 and F172 instructions)

■ Detection of motor rotation speed for encoder feedback control

Pulses input in a specified period by a single

instruction are counted, and the frequency is calculated.

■ Measuring the pulse frequency (F178 instruction)

Setting range: 1 ms to 5,000 ms

The speed can be freely changed until the operation starts to

decelerate to a stop.

■ High-speed counters and pulse outputs

■ Built-in multipoint PWM outputs (4 channels)

Specified period

Ladder programs can be combined to create an

application for counting pulse signals from the encoder

through the high-speed counter input and adjusting the

pulse output frequency based on the count to

synchronize the slave axis speed with the master axis

speed.

In the right-hand figure, the

speed of conveyor 1, which

is inverter-controlled, is

measured based on the

encoder pulse count, and

pulses are output to the

slave motor (for jog

operation) according to the

measured speed in order to

synchronize the speed of

conveyor 2.

The speed can be controlled by

changing the ON width of the PWM

output.

The unit can also serve as an

analog voltage output when a

smoothing capacitor is inserted in

the circuit.

The pulse output port of FP0R can also serve as a PWM output

port. One of the application examples is an analog voltage

output, which can be used for inverter speed control.
