FP-Sigma
The FP-Sigma features the very latest control technology and a compact structural design. It is able to communicate with all major factory automation products. Of course you can program the FP-Sigma using our FPWIN Pro software (conforming to IEC 61131-3), and it is compatible with all Panasonic controllers.
Other highlights:
- Large program memory (32k commands)
- Large data memory (32k words)
- Efficient motion control functions
- 50kHz fast counter input
- 100kHz pulse output
- convenient positioning commands
- Fastest processing time, 0.32µs/basic command
- Real-time clock
- Compact design (W 30 x H 90 x D 60mm)
- Top communication performance thanks to 3 possible serial interfaces on the CPU
- MODBUS RTU Master/Slave standard in all CPUs

Fieldbus Master Units for PROFIBUS DP, CANopen and DeviceNet
The expansion Fieldbus Master Units (FMU) allow you to integrate FP-Sigma PLCs as Master into your network with a maximum degree of flexibility. The units are available for three bus systems: PROFIBUS, DeviceNet and CANopen.
For each network type, ready-made function libraries are available for the programming software Control FPWIN Pro. These libraries drastically shorten the time needed to develop your applications, and consequently save valuable human resource costs.
