The FX1S –
A new Family of Micro
Controllers
The FX1S family is the prefix of the latest
range of micro controllers - in fact some
would say Super Micro’s!. These new units will be phased in
over time as both an upgrade to the existing FX0S product
ranges but also as a range of products which fill the functionality
gap between the FX0S and the highly successful FX0N.
Increased functions and increased power!
Big program memory - FX1S has 2000 steps.
Large data storage - FX1S has 256 data registers.
High speed pulse train outputs - FX1S PLCs have two 100kHz pulse train outputs as
STANDARD!
High speed counters - FX1S has an excellent array of high speed counters; Single phase
high speed counters will accept signals up to 60kHz while two phase inputs can be as
high as 30kHz.
Positioning was never easier - Combining the pulse train outputs and the high speed
counters with 5 new dedicated positioning instructions means easier control – especially
with the NEW ABS instruction which links the FX1S PLC to the Mitsubishi MR-H, MR-J,
MR-J2 and MR-J2-Super servo amplifiers.
Advanced instructions – Continuing the tradition of the generic FX family FX1S PLCs have
a wide range of useful and easy to use instructions including PID, FIFO (SFWR, SWRD)
and a new 70 year Hour Meter instruction for maintenance monitoring to name but a few.
Real value with Real Time Calendar Clock - FX1S comes with a built in Real Time
Calendar Clock and 6 instructions to handle time and event scheduling.
Flexible communication - Optional communication boards mean the FX1S can be used to
control communications with peripheral devices or be part of a large multi-product network
– options include RS232, RS422, RS485 and a converter board to link to existing FX0N
ADP blocks.
User interfacing with the FX1S PLC has many new benefits as well. A NEW 8 channel
potentiometer option board allows users to set variables by a simple twist of a screw
driver. Alternatively the NEW FX1N-5DM maintenance panel (option) allows maintenance
engineers to check time and date information as well as setting timer counter and data
register values.
The FX1S family is certainly more product power than ever before
in a micro or modular micro PLC.

Features and options:
The programming port, analog potentiometers
and RUN/STOP switch can be found directly
beneath the programming port cover.
Optional communications boards – Once the top cover is removed, the communication boards
can plug directly in to the top of the FX1S.
The FX1N-5DM maintenance panel can be
used on its own (in the same ‘connection’ port
as the communications boards)
or
in combination with the communications boards
(see below).
