FR I/O module

The FR series I/O module has an FRnet interface, which can be used as a distributed remote I/O module. The user can then easily daisy chain several FRnet modules together. FRnet modules can work with PC, PAC systems.

PC-based system

Since windows is a multi-tasking system, it is very difficult to implement a real-time control system, especially when most of the CPU power is consumed by image and motion cards, and the remainder is not sufficient to handle I/O control. An FRnet control board combined with FRnet I/O modules can help solve the problems faced by system designers. The FRB-200U is an FRnet communication board that can be used as a light-duty controller. For heavy-duty control applications. Refer to the literature related to the FRB-200U for more detailed information.

PC-based I/O control systems are widely used in measurement and control system applications. But sometimes it is very difficult to meet the demands of critical timing control missions. As a result of the special features of FRnet, such as real I/O synchronization and fixed scan time, FRB boards can be added to PC-based systems to give additional PLC-like control functions, with no need to mix PC-based controllers with PLCs.

Traditional high-channel-count I/O cards occupy several PC slots, and the bulky cables can be difficult to handle. Several FRB boards can be combined to work together to control thousands of I/O channels. Reduced cabling, lower labor costs, easy installation and higher reliability are the major advantages of an FRnet solution.

The FRB-200U is an isolated FRnet communication board. The FRB-200U has two FRnet ports. Each FRnet port can control a maximum of 16 communication nodes, numbered from 0 to 15. Each single node of the remote I/O module can control a maximum of 16 DI/DO (8 DI and 8 DO) channels. In other words, each FRnet port can control a maximum of 256 DI/DO (128 DI and 128 DO) channels.
