The MicroSmart FC6A series has two types of central units: Plus and All-in-One. The Plus type has two RJ45 Ethernet ports, built-in webserver functions and expandable up to 2060 I/O, while the All-in-One type has one built-in serial port and one RJ45 Ethernet port and is expandable up to 520 I /O.
IDEC MicroSmart FC6A Plus controllers exceed the capabilities of micro controllers! With a capacity of 2060 I/O, this PLC can control large machines or entire small manufacturing plants, providing greater capabilities for even the most demanding applications. MicroSmart FC6A Plus processors now support the EtherNet/IP™ protocol. With EtherNet/IP™ scanner functionality, the FC6A Plus can connect to, monitor and control any I/O, drives or other intelligent automation devices using this popular industrial protocol. In addition, the FC6A Plus can be configured as an EtherNet/IP™ adapter, allowing it to interact with other peer and supervisory systems, such as other PLCs or HMIs. The Plus units also have the ability to communicate with the data cloud using the MQTT protocol.
MicroSmart FC6A All-in-One CPUs are powerful PLCs with up to 520 digital I/O and 126 analog I/O. Three models are available, varying in size, each with 24 V DC or 100-240 V AC input power. The 16 I/O model has 9 inputs and 7 relay or transistor outputs. The 24 I/O model has 14 inputs and 10 relay or transistor outputs. The 40 I/O model has 24 inputs and 16 relay or transistor outputs. Each model also includes an integrated 0-10V DC analog input. The 16 and 24 I/O models can accommodate one insertable extension (cartridge), while the 40 I/O model can accommodate two such cartridges.
