FX3GC PLC User Manual
Thank you for choosing Coolmay FX3GC series PLC. This manual mainly explains the features, general
specifications and wiring methods of FX3GC series. More detail programming information please refer to
"Coolmay CX3G&FX3GC PLC Programming Manual".
The FX3GC series is a compact PLC with the following features:
1. Highly integrated. Digital at most 16DI/16DO (digital type can be customized transistor, relay or mixed).
Analog at most 8AI 6AO, input can be customized temperature, current, voltage or mixed (support-5~5V/
-10V~10V), output can be customized current and voltage.
2. Comes with two PLC programming ports: MiniB USB port (faster download speed) and RS232 port.
3. Support multi-channel high-speed counting and high-speed pulse functions. High-speed counting
normally single-phase 6 60KHz, or AB (Z) phase 2 60KHz + AB phase 1 10KHz. High-speed pulse is normally
8 channels, Y0-Y3 is 100KHz, Y4-Y7 is 10KHz. Acceleration and deceleration are independent; the total of
high-speed counting + high-speed pulse cannot exceed 480KHz.
4. Support special encryption. Setting the password to 12345678 can completely prohibit reading programs.
[Note: Only 8-bit password encryption is supported]
5. Convenient wiring, using 3.5mm pitch pluggable terminals.
