Omron SYSMAC C Series User Manual

Introduction
Features
This user's manual! provides all the information you need to install,
operate, and maintain the OMRON SYSMAC-C20 Programmable
Controller, which can be used for a wide range of industrial applications.
The C20 is OMRON’s response to the demand for a low-cost, versatile
industrial control system that can be quickly installed and easily operated
by technicians with little or no experience with programmable controllers.
Improved cost effectiveness
All functions for a small-scale control system are integrated in a single
housing. The C20 can be used in the place of conventional relay control
panels and is ideally suited for economical control of manufacturing and
other applications which require fewer input/output control points.
Slim profile for convenient mounting
The C20's compact design allows it to be installed in locations where
space is at a premium. Hardly larger than a standard text book, the C20
can easily be mounted either horizontally or vertically near the machinery
it operates.
Choice of memory chips
Either RAM or EPROM memory chips can be installed in the C20. RAM
offers the convenience of a read/write memory for control programs that
are under development or subject to modification; EPROM chips can be
used for “permanent” storage for rarely changed programs or when
multiple copies are needed for programs.
Optional optical-fiber communication
As with the other models of the SYSMAC C-Series programmable
controllers, I/O linkage can be accomplished using a remote I/O master
unit and optical-fiber cables. This state-of-the-art technology enables
noise-free communications over long distances at ultra-high speeds.
Detachable terminal block
An easily removable terminal block greatly facilitates wiring the I/O lines
and makes maintenance more convenient.
Upwardly compatible peripheral devices
The programming console, printer interface unit, and PROM writer can be
shared with all programmable controllers in the SYSMAC C-Series.
Moreover, with the addition of a peripheral interface, it is possible to
program and operate the PC through a portable graphic programming
console (either LCD or CRT) as well as a multisupport base unit.
