Yokogawa Programmable Logic Controller PLC FA-M3 Positioning Module F3NC96-0N
General
Yokogawa Positioning Module (with MECHATROLINK-II Interface) F3NC96-0N.This positioning module is to be installed on the base unit of a FA–M3 range free controller system, and supports MECHATROLINK–II *1 communications. The positioning module provides an interface (C1 master) to a high–speed motion field network based on MECHATROLINK–II, a standard proposed by Yaskawa Electric. It transmits MECHATROLINK–II commands to external equipment (slaves) according to instructions from a CPU module, and receives MECHATROLINK–II responses from external equipment.

Features
This module has the following features:
– Positioning control of up to 15 axes per module using one slot.
– Easy connection of controller and motors using connectors reduces wiring cost.
– High–speed transmission of 10 Mbps with cycle time of 1 ms for 8 axes or 2 ms for 15 axes enables control data (target position, current position, etc.) to be transmitted and received in real time to achieve fast response and synchronization of peripherals.
– Command transmission enables maximum utilization of motor performance (high speed, high resolution) to achieve fast and accurate positioning control.
– Supports versatile positioning control of multiple linear interpolation motions of up to 15 axes in any combination, as well as change in speed or target position during motion.
– Currently supports servomotors (manufactured by Yaskawa Electric). Future support for stepper motors, inverters, I/O equipment and other equipment is expected.
