The FBs-PLC’s design incorporates a “System on Chip” (SoC) developed in-house by Fatek Corporation. The BGA chip consists of over 120,000 gates which integrates powerful features such as a Central Processing Unit (CPU), Memory, Hardware Logic Solver (HLS), 5 high-speed communication ports, 4 sets of hardware high-speed counters/timers, 4 axes of high-speed pulse outputs for NC positioning control (with linear interpolation), 16 high-speed interrupts and captured inputs. The FBsPLC represents high functionality and reliability with exceptional value compared to other PLC’s in its class.
Via the five high-speed communication ports included in the SoC, the FBsPLC’s communication capability is outstanding operating at a maximum speed of 921.6Kbps. Communications can be achieved using ASCII code or the double-speed binary code. Along with FATEK’s standard protocol, Modbus ASCII/RTU/TCP or user-definable protocols are also available. The FBs-PLC also provides the option of 8 different communication boards and 10 different communication modules for various types of communication applications. With their high speed and functionality the FBs-PLC has the greatest number of communication ports than any other PLC in its class. Each communication port comes standard with LED indicators for transmission (TX) and reception (RX) to enable the user to monitor the operation.
NC Position Control is incorporated into the SoC of the FBs-PLC which integrates PLC+NC control into one unit in order for resources sharing and reducing the need of data exchange. The NC position control adopts special positioning command language, which allows programming by mechanical or electrical units and the changing control of parameters during execution. One single unit has up to four axes outputs with a maximum frequency of 200KHz (MC) or 920KHz (MN) and equipped with multi-axis linear interpolation function. If combined with the four sets of built-in HHSC, it can achieve a fully closed loop positioning control!
The five communication ports in FBs-PLC can simultaneously connect to various intelligent peripherals with various interfaces such as USB, RS232, RS485, Ethernet, CANopen® and ZigBee™. Apart from the FATEK and Modbus protocol or communication through the FATEK communication server, the user can also use the PLC’s CLINK instruction for user-defined protocol to actively or passively establish connections with many intelligent peripherals.
The open communication protocol of the FBs-PLC is supported by all major brands of Supervisory Software (Scada) and Operator Terminals (HMI). Scada software such as Wonderware, Citec, Labview and LabLink! Operator terminals (HMI) such as Proface, Hitech/Beijer and Cermate can be directly connected with the FBs-PLC via serial and Ethernet interfaces. FATEK also provides FATEK DDE standard communication server or thirdparty OPC server for the user to easily connect the FBs-PLC to various control or supervisory systems. In addition, reputable companies such as National Instruments and KONTRON both sell FATEK OPC software package for users.
The FBs-PLC provides 16 points of external interrupts. The interrupt is edge driven and the user can define which edge triggers the interrupt and can be positive, negative or both edges. The interrupts can perform high speed, emergency processing which can withstand the time jilter caused by the delay and deviation of the scan time and can be used for precision high speed positioning, machine home and high speed RPM measurement applications.
