Description
FP-M transmitter master board enables the FP-M to
exchange I/O information with slave stations at
remote site using a twisted-pair cable. Connecting
with another FP-M transmitter master board or with
an FP3 transmitter master unit, you can exchange
I/O information with another FP-M at remote site.
Communication medium (RS485 port): twisted-pair
cable up to 32 inputs and 32 outputs can be
controlled per board.

The FP-M I/O link board is the interface board for
exchanging I/O information between an FP3/FP5
and an FP-M.
When the FP-M is connected to the MEWNET-F
system (FP3/FP5) via the FP-M I/O link board, you
can exchange I/O information using a 2-conductor
cable.
RS485 ↔ RS422/RS232C signal converter
Used for communication between the programmable
controller and your computer.
