Ever more
demanding manufacturing systems, new forms of communication and the need to integrate
new technologies are pushing the performance limits of conventional PLC systems.
Mitsubishi Electric’s response to these growing challenges is our Q series
high-end controllers with advanced multi-processor technology. In each
system, up to four separate CPUs share the processing load of control, motion
control, PC and communications tasks. This brilliantly simple solution brings
a dramatic boost in system availability and performance. This means, there’s
no more need to install multiple PLCs and a network to connect them. Now
you can control multiple applications with a single system using the Q series
powerful multi-processor functionality. With its integrated IT technology, MELSEC
System Q opens up a wide range of options for worldwide communication. With
its unique design concept and outstandig features MELSEC System Q can rightfully
claim to be the controller platform for the future. Key features include:
- All program cycle periods continuously adjustable from 0.5-2.000ms in 0.5ms
steps
- Self-diagnostics with error history stored in the CPU
- Memory
expansion options up to 32MB
- Support for remote diagnostics and programming
(modem, Internet, intranet)
- Monitoring of special function modules, online
system analysis on screen
- All CPUs fitted with integrated Flash ROM
- Utility
tools enable simple configuration and functional tests of analog and special function
modules
- Programmable with IEC 1131.3/EN 61131-3 compatible software or
(via a PC CPU) in high-level languages like C++ or Visual Basic
- Soft PLC
available for the PC CPUs
