FP OPC Server
Connects your favorite industrial application to FP2 or other FP Series PLCs
The Panasonic FP OPC Server allows high-performance data transfer between applications supporting the universally accepted
OPC PC DA Standard (v1-v3) and Panasonic FP Series PLCs. The FP OPC Server manages the device-specific communication and
provides data via a standard interface. Thus OPC clients connected to the server can exchange information with FP or other FP
Series PLCs.
Features of the FP OPC Server
Modern and intuitive user interface allows you to configure the
server. While creating the application, sophisticated user assistance helps
you in your work.
The server complies to the following OPC DA client/server technologies:
OPC DA 1.0a, .05a and 3.0.
The PLCs can be accessed via serial, modem and Ethernet communica-
tion lines.
State-of-the-art import / export mechanism allows you to save, exchange
or edit data in XML format. Data can also be exchanged using a CSV file.
An icon or tool tip notifies the user about possible errors in configuration.
The FP OPC Server allows you to clearly structure your application,
e.g. by grouping elements in meaningful hierarchies.
Tolerant of interruptions due to optimized communication features.
FP Data Analyzer
The FP Data Analyzer is a software tool for acquisition, logic analysis and
representation of recorded data on multiple channels connected to any Pana-
sonic PLC. The software is a stand-alone tool. You need not install any other
software to run the FP Data Analyzer.
The FP Data Analyzer can be connected to the FP by utilizing the integrated
MEWNET Manager, for instance via the COM port. Recording and analyzing
remote PLCs via LAN or modem is just a matter of seconds.
The tool can be used for:
Performing failure diagnostics.
Finding and isolating failures.
Performing analyses, system optimization.
Documenting processes.
Shortening the time between setup and operation.
