FPG-C32T2 Matsushita Electric Works Control Unit

The Panasonic / NAiS / Matsushita Electric Works FP Sigma Series Programmable Controllers offer all of the functions of a mid-scale PLC packed into the compact body size of the 32-point type FP0. A program capacity of 12 k steps is provided as a standard feature, so you never have to worry about how much memory is left as you're programming. In addition, 32 k words are reserved for data registers, so large volumes of data can be compiled and multiple operations can be processed without running out of memory.

Using the Tool port (RS232C) provided as a standard feature on the main unit, communication can be carried out with a display panel or computer. Additionally, communication cassettes with RS232C and RS485 interfaces are factory optional. Installing a 2 - channel RS232C type communication cassette in the FP Sigma makes it possible to connect two devices with RS232C port. A full lineup of communication functions means you can also work with 1:N communication and PLC link function (up to 16 units).

A high-speed counter and pulse output functions are provided as standard features. The pulse output function supports frequencies of up to 100 kHz, enabling positioning control using a stepping motor or servo motor.

Increment input mode, decrement input mode, 2-phase input mode, individual input mode, and direction discrimination mode are supported.

An analog potentiometer (volume dial) is provided as a standard feature. This can be used in applications such as analog timers, without using the programming tools. An analog unit is also available as the intelligent unit.
