FP

S (Sigma) Fieldbus Master Units

The optimal network solution for your facility

The expansion Fieldbus Master Units (FMU) allow you to integrate FP

S (Sigma) PLCs into your network with a maximum degree of

flexibility. The units are available for three bus systems: PROFIBUS, DeviceNet and CANopen. Others are planned for the future.

FP

S FMU PROFIBUS:

FPG-DPV1-M

FP

S FMU DeviceNet:

FPG-DEV-M

FP

S FMU CANopen:

FPG-CAN-M

Advantages:

Wide range of connectivity solutions for FP



S (Sigma).

One PLC hardware platform for several bus systems.



Gateway function between Fieldbus types simply by connecting the



corresponding expansion units to the same CPU.

One configuration software for various Fieldbus systems:



one-time cost, several network types,



only one installation necessary,



user must only be trained to use one software.



The configuration software is integrated in the PLC programming



software Control FPWIN Pro:

no additional software required on the PC,



bus-relevant global variables are automatically generated for the



PLC program

Fieldbus Master Units (FMU) Library for PROFIBUS, DeviceNet and



CANopen can be downloaded free of charge from Panasonic Electric

Works’ internet homepage.

Control Configurator FM is an add-on

software for Control FPWIN Pro and is

used to configure and diagnose the FMUs.
