Among our FP series PLC, it can be used for link functions with the following models. It is also
capable of 1:1 communication via RS-232C port.
● FP0H (Using communication cassette RS-485 type)
● FP-X0 (L40MR / L60MR)
● FP0R (RS-485 type)
● FPsigma (communication cassette RS-485 type is used)
● FP-X (Using Communication cassette RS-485 type)
● FP2 Multi Communication Unit (Using Communication cassette RS-485 type)
1.2.2 MEWTOCOL Master/Slave Communication
■
Overview of function
● Execute communication using MEWTOCOL-COM, a communication protocol used by our
PLC.
● In master communication, PLC executes communication by sending commands to devices
that support MEWTOCOL, and receiving responses. Messages in accordance with the
