Installation
Handling and installation of the modules
are very simple.
All modules are fitted with an integrated
DIN adapter for snap-on installation on
DIN rail systems.
If you wish, the modules can also be
installed normally on flat surfaces with
screw fastenings.
In the FX0N and FX2N series all connec-
tions between the CPU’s system bus and
the expansion and special function
modules are made with the standard flat
ribbon cable. No other internal system
wiring is required for connecting the CPU
and modules.
Wiring
All external wiring is connected to the
standard cable terminals to the screw
terminals on the modules. The entire
terminal block has a cover which provides
protection against short circuits and
inadvertent contact.
Programming
All CPUs have a standardised program-
ming interface for connection of a pro-
gramming unit or a personal computer.
Simple control tasks can be programmed
directly using hand-held programming
units or the control units of the FX-DU
series. In addition to this the CPUs can
also be programmed with the MELSEC
MEDOC plus software package, which
runs on a normal PC. This powerful pro-
gramming environment can be used to
create large application programs con-
forming to the IEC 1131.3 standard.
