a Connector cable FX series PC
connector cable to an FX series PC inside the control
panel. The data access unitis used to display the
current values of timers, counters and data registers, as
well asto change set values.
This unit has an LCD (16 letters x 2 lines) illuminated by
a long-life LED backlight. Poweris supplied from the PC
through the dedicated cable previously mentioned.
0 Since different applicable cables are used FXo for series
PCs andFX series PCs, make sureto always use the
proper cable, asshown in the table on theright of this
page.
This unitis an easy-to-use, small-size display unit,
whose specifications and functions are the same for all
PCS.
