- CPU performance
The sequence execution engine, which is the heart of the MELSEC iQ-F, is a newly developed execution engine supporting structured programs, execution of multiple programs, ST language, FB, etc.
- Control scale: Max. 512 points
When remote I/Os (CC-Link, AnyWireASLINK or Bitty Series) are used, up to 512 points can be controlled.
- Simple motion unit can be connected
By connecting the simple motion unit, SSCNET III/H-compatible positioning becomes possible.
You can create table-method programs combining linear interpolation, 2-axis arc interpolation and continuous path control to draw smooth paths with ease.
- Built-in analog input/output (with warning output)
2 channels of analog input and 1 channel of analog output, both 12-bit, are built in.
You do not need a program, so long as parameters are set.
Numerical shift, scaling and warning output are easy to set, using parameters.
- Built-in Ethernet port
The Ethernet communication port supports communication up to 8 connections on the network, permitting connection with many personal computers and equipment. It also supports remote maintenance and seamless SLMP communication with host equipment, etc.
- Built-in RS-485 port (with MODBUS function)
The built-in RS-485 communication port enables communication with up to 16 Mitsubishi general-purpose inverters over a distance of up to 50 m. (The inverters can be controlled using 6 advanced commands.)
The port also supports the MODBUS function, permitting connection with up to 32 peripheral devices (including the master) such as sequencers, sensors and temperature control units.
- Built-in SD card slot
The built-in SD card slot is useful when updating programs or in mass production of equipment.
You will be able to save data logs in an SD card (future function) for use in the analysis of equipment status, production condition, etc.
- High-speed system bus communication
The MELSEC iQ-F, together with a high-speed CPU, achieves high-speed system bus communication of 1.5 k word/ms (approx. 150 times faster than the level achievable with the FX3U), to demonstrate its full capability even when intelligent function units generating a lot of data traffic are used.
- RUN/STOP/RESET switches
The RUN/STOP switch now has a RESET function.
This increases the debugging efficiency because the system can be restarted without turning off the main power supply.
- Security
The MELSEC iQ-F provides security functions (file password, remote password, security key) that are designed to prevent data theft, unauthorized operation, etc., by third parties making illegal access.
- No battery, maintenance-free
You can save programs without using a battery. Clock data is saved for 10 days using a large-capacity capacitor (the specific period varies depending on the use condition).
- *You can use an optional battery unit to save (latch) the clock data and device memory in the event of power outage.
Combination of FX Sequencer and FA Equipment
Can be connected with Ethernet.
- The 4.3-inch Wide size GT2104-R realizes a high-resolution display of 480×272 dotsin a compact body,
65536 colors of TFT LCD, and built-in abundant communication (Ethernet, RS-422/485, RS-232), allows direct connection to FX5U.
Equipped with a communication protocol for easy inverter connection.

- FX5U is equipped with Mitsubishi inverter protocol.
An inverter can be connected only by communication settings. - Possible to connect up to 16 units, Max. 50 m with the built-in RS-485 port.
- Also possible to perform MODBUS communication with built-in RS-485 port.
Possible to connect up to 32 units, Max. 50 m.
Use an adapter when long communication distance is required.
High reliability by connecting with Mitsubishi AC Servo.

- All transistor type models of FX5U/5UC have a built-in 4-axis 200 kHz pulse output.
In addition, the number of axes can be increased with the same setting as the built-in positioning using the high-speed I/O expansion unit. (Future support) - Supporting simple motion connection, it is possible to perform more advanced positioning (synchronous operation / cam control, etc.).
