The transistor output type C14 comes with 3-axis while C30/60 comes with 4-axis
pulse output inside the control unit. The multi-axis control, which previously
required a higher-level PLC or additional positioning unit, or two or more PLC units,
can now be achieved with only one FP-X transistor output type unit in a small
space at a low cost. In addition, as this type does not require a pulse I/O cassette
needed for a relay output type, other function expansion cassettes such as
communication or analog input can be attached for more diversified applications.
2-axis linear interpolation refers to moving a robot arm or equipment head diagonally on a straight line by
simultaneously controlling two motor shafts. It is used for palletizing, component pick and place, XY table
control, contour cutting of a PC board etc. FP-X transistor output type is capable of simultaneously
controlling 2-axis linear interpolation, for the first time in the industry with a compact pulse-output PLC.
This unit drastically expands the range of applications along with the added convenience of programming
by using the linear interpolation commands F175 (SPSH).

When adding a pulse I/O cassette to the relay output type, two high-speed counter sets can
be added to every cassette. Please refer to the user manual for counter specification.

By adding two pulse I/O cassette units, linear interpolation is
possible at the maximum composite speed of 80kHz. The
command used for this unit is F175 (SPSH), same as that for
the transistor output types.
