About the FC6A Series MICROSmart

The FC6A Series MICROSmart is a small, All-in-One CPU module or Plus CPU module programmable controller with excellent
expandability and a variety of communication functions. The CPU modules are equipped with 16-, 24-, 32-, or 40-I/Os and support
either 100 to 240V AC, 24V DC, or 12V DC power supplies.
Expansion modules, cartridges, HMI modules, and other modules can be connected to the CPU module. Inputs, outputs, and
communication ports can be expanded according to application.
The FC6A Series MICROSmart can also be linked to various types of external devices with communication functions that include
maintenance communication, user communication, and Modbus communication. The FC6A Series MICROSmart is also equipped
with functions for high-speed counters, pulses, flow calculation, and data logging functions.
Programs used on the FC6A Series MICROSmart are created with WindLDR, easy-to-use, Windows-compatible ladder
programming software. This ladder programming software also supports the FC4A Series and the FC5A Series, so you can use your
existing ladder program resources.
