For General Purpose Applications at a Reasonable Cost

The FX-1N Series PLC is a popular type PLC that can be expanded up to 128 I/O points and can add special function blocks or expansion boards. The communication and data link functions make the FX-1N Series PLC perfect for applications where size, communication, use of special functions blocks, and control power are important.

The FX1N provides many user benefits including excellent compatibility with other FX Family PLCs. The FX1N is upwardly compatible to the FX2N using many of the FX2Ns I/O and special function blocks. It also shares the same programming structure as the FX1S. This means that users benefit from learning and using one PLC programming syntax; resulting in faster program development and reduced programming errors.

The FX1N saves space, cost and engineering time with the use of powerful, built in, positioning tools such two 100kHz pulse train outputs and up to two 60kHz high speed counters.These can be used to create simple 2-axis positioning systems, linked to servo amplifiers or stepper motor drivers without the need for additional PLC hardware saving space, cost and engineering time.

In addition, users benefit from a reduced stock and spare parts requirement as the FX1N uses the same expansion boards as the FX1S and the same special function and expansion I/O blocks as the FX2N.
