■ High-speed, high-accuracy machine control To achieve truly high-speed synchronized control between multiple CPUs, a dedicated bus is used, independent of sequence program operation. (0.88 ms operation cycle) This multiple CPU high-speed communication is synchronized with motion control to maximize computational efficiency. Additionally, the performance of the latest motion control CPU is twice as fast as the previous model, ensuring high-speed, high-accuracy machine control. Multiple CPU high speed main base unit Universal model programmable controller control processor Device memory...

The expanded CPU lineup now includes low and very high memory capacities The wide variety of QnU compatible products is sure to meet any need Program capacity (step) Compared to the previous generation of basic model QCPU, the performance specifications have been generously increased. ■ Support for multiple programs The new Universal small-capacity type CPUs support up to 32 programs. Thanks to common architecture and instructions, changing PLC types between Universal series modules is easy. All Universal series include a USB port. This means that even when the RS-232 port such as a display...

■ Structure programs into individual routines The number of programs that can be used has been increased to a maximum of 252. This allows detailed program management by product, process, etc. and facilitates structuring programs into individual routines. Programs organized in this way can be readily debugged, monitored, and reused. Also, the standard ROM capacity has been expanded to a maximum of 16 MB to enable the storage of function blocks, label information, and device comments. ■ Process large volumes of data at high speed The standard RAM capacity has been increased to make more space...

More User Friendly ■ Save valuable time using the sampling trace function The start-up and commissioning time of new systems can be shortened by quickly verifying operation. The sampling trance function is also very useful for troubleshooting and debugging operations, where it can help to quickly understand sequence of events. In Multi-CPU systems, it is possible to confirm the timing and transfer of data between CPUs. Using GX Developer or GX Works2, the collected data is shown in an easy-to-understand chart and where word devices are specified, the change in value over time can be seen...

■ Critical data is automatically protected from loss Program and parameter files are automatically backed-up to non-volatile Flash ROM (does not require battery). This prevents the loss of important information, including device data, and extends the battery's life. Even if all power is lost, the backup contents will be automatically be copied back to working memory when the power returns. No battery required for data protection CPU built-in memory Program memory (Flash ROM) Program cache memory (SRAM) Write programs For program execution Programming tool No battery backup needed!
