 Conrols the Servo Motor MINAS A6N/A5N series
The FP-XH M8N Control Unit can control servo motors of up to 8 axes via the motion-
dedicated network Realtime Express (RTEX). It achieves wiring saving by network connection
and high-speed control.

 Frexibly deals with positioning control up to eight axes
The FP-XH M8N Control Unit supports independent control, interpolation control and
synchronous control, and deals with simple control through complicated control.
 Hybrid controller equipped with genera-purpose inputs and outputs
The general-purpose I/O of 8-point inputs and 8-point outputs and RS-232C port are equipped
as the standard equipment in addition to the I/F for network servo.
 Pulse input function usable for high-speed counter and manual pulsar
A maximum of four-channel inputs are available, and can be used for the high-speed counter
and pulsar operation.
 Can use various options of the existing models of FP-X series
Various add-on cassettes and expansion units can be used. The communication interface,
digital I/O and analog I/O can be easily expanded.
 Shortens the startup time by using "Configurator PM7"
By using the setting monitoring software for positioning control "Configurator PM7",
positioning parameters and tables can be easily managed. Also, the "Tool operation function"
which enables the adjustment without ladder programs shortens the startup time.
