Servomotor and stepping motor control in production equipment has become increasingly
diversified while requiring a greater number of axes – for example, electronic control for
replacing cams, XY table + Z-axis control for cell-production and LCD alignment, 3D bending
process of corrugated paper boxes and heat exchanger pipes, high-density coil winding
operations etc. With such applications in mind, FP-X is a compact general-purpose PLC
suited for small-scale equipment controls with its 4-axis pulse output built into the compact

■
Securing 0.5A in every transistor output even when all output ports are ON.
■ Equipped with a Sampling Trace Function – Smart Solution for Program Debugging
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, C40 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.
■ The communication cassette (Ethernet Type) will be available soon.
Using this option, you can monitor the data in FP-X on the
PCWAY through the existing Ethernet, or remotely
upload/download a program.
FP-X perfectly fits the need for low cost “multi-axis positioning control
in small-scale equipment”

Item Specification
■ Built-in 4-axis Pulse Output (Transistor Output Type)
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

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).
● The relay output type can control two axes by
using the expansion cassettes
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.
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.
● The relay output type is also capable of 2-axis linear interpolation.

Securing 0.5A in every transistor output even when all output ports are ON.
■ Equipped with a Sampling Trace Function – Smart Solution for Program Debugging
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.
■ The communication cassette (Ethernet Type) will be April 2007.
Using this option, you can monitor the data in FP-X on the
PCWAY through the existing Ethernet, or remotely
upload/download a program.
FP-X perfectly fits the need for low cost “multi-axis positioning control

■ Built-in 4-axis Pulse Output (Transistor Output Type)
The transistor output type C14 comes with 3-axis while C30/40 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.

The high-level PID control easily achieves high-speed, high-accuracy
multi-point temperature control.
●High-accuracy PID control is possible by adopting a sophisticated
algorithm and floating-point operations.
●Higher accuracy is obtained by ultra high-speed computations in a
32 µs/loop. For example, a 16-loop control only adds a scan time of
0.5 ms by ensuring minimum impact on the tact time.
●The simultaneous multi-point auto-tuning simplifies complex
parameter setting.
●The high-speed control PI-D*1 mode and overshoot suppression I-PD*2
mode are available for selection according to the intended application.
●By combining with a sequence control, the parameters (Kp, Ti, Td, etc.)
can be changed during a PID control execution, thereby enabling
optimum temperature control in each stage including start up, mid-
range, and convergence.
The ability to change the target value easily enables multi-step
temperature control, which was difficult only with temperature
controllers. In addition, the multi-point temperature control enables
the centralized control of multiple temperature controllers with a
single FP-X for unified data management.
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.
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)
The units can be tightly

Different types of equipment need to be linked − FP-X flexibly meet such requirements.
Network
■ Up to 3 serial communication ports can be used at once.
■ PLC Link
■ Modbus* Compatibility
When 17 or more FP-X units need to be linked, the use of a Modbus
instead of a MEWNET-W0 can accommodate up to 99 FP-X units.
Because each FP-X can be a master or slave, a multi-master link
can be constructed by passing a token from a user program.

FP-X Options and Service Parts
100 to 240V AC
Compliant with international standard IEC61131-3
Programming software approved by PLC Open
■ Features
1. Five programming languages can
be used.
Programming can be done using the
language most familiar to the developer
or using the language most suited to the
process to be performed. High-level
(structured text) languages that allow
structuring, such as C, are supported.
2. Easy to reuse well-proven
programs
Efficiency when writing programs has
been greatly increased by being able to
split programming up for each function
and process using structured
programming.
3. Keep know-how from getting out
By “black boxing” a part of a program, you
can prevent know-how from leaking out
and improve the program’s maintainability.
4. Conversion function for previously
written programs provided to allow
use of program assets.
5. Uploading of source programs
from PLC possible.
Maintainability increased by being able to
load programs and comments from the
PLC.
* This only applies to FP-X, FPΣ and FP2
(with comment memory) and to FP2SH
and FP10SH (with card board).
6. Programming for all models in the
FP series possible.
Any model can be used.
●Multiple passwords for protection of each block
The security level (8 levels) can be input for each block in a program. Only users
of a set security level or higher can make changes.

(IEC61131-3 compliant Windows version software)
●
Programming in the language most suited to the process
Easy-to-understand, efficient programs can be created, for example, by
using a ladder program for machine control or ST for communications
control.
●Programming in the language you are good at
Programming time can be greatly reduced by the easy ability to split and
then integrate programming for each function and process.
