Why Panasonic FP Series

Common programming environment

FPWIN GR7 and FPWIN Pro7 work across all FP Series models — reduce training costs and simplify multi-model sites.

Multi-axis motion built in

Up to 6-axis pulse output built into the CPU — no separate motion card needed for most applications.

Distributed control

FP0H's dual Ethernet with serial wiring eliminates hubs. Multiple controllers share data across a line without a central high-performance PLC.

Compact panel footprint

FP0R at 25 mm and FP0H at 30.4 mm wide — even fully expanded systems fit in panels where traditional PLCs won't.

Battery-free operation

FP0R's FeRAM model saves all data automatically — no batteries to replace, no data loss after shutdowns or long idle periods.

Broad industry compatibility

Modbus RTU, EtherNet/IP, MC protocol, CC-Link slave — connects to robots, HMIs, drives, and other PLCs from any vendor.
