Usability
The transistor output type is not limited by the control capacity of each common
line. Every output port can secure 0.5A even when all output ports are ON for any
basic unit C14, C30, C60 as well as the expansion units E16 and E30 (at 25° C) –
Sufficient capacity for high-load switching such as LED type signal tower etc.
The sampling trace function enables the user to monitor a change of I/O condition or
data register value in a very short time interval – an efficiency tool for debugging a
ladder program.
The shortest sampling interval of the normal time-chart monitor is 10ms with the FPWIN
GR or FPWIN PRO, but monitoring in much shorter intervals is often required during
debugging operations. The sampling trace function enables data accumulation of any
16 contact data and 3 data register values once or several times within a scan time.
Reading out these data through the FPWIN GR or FPWIN PRO enables the user to
confirm an instantaneous change of status by time on the time-chart monitor.
Using this option, you can monitor the data in FP-X on the
PCWAY through the existing Ethernet, or remotely
upload/download a program.
The enhanced functionality expands the ranges of applications,
while improving the ease of use.
