Control FPWIN Pro
Programming According to the International Standard IEC 61131-3
FPWIN Pro is the Panasonic programming software developed according to the international standard IEC 61131-3 (for Windows 98,
NT V4.0, 000, ME, XP or Vista). This new version is a result of experience gained over many years. We were one of the first PLC
manufacturers to offer an IEC 61131-3 programming software, and we are a leading member of the international organization
PLCopen.
The most important highlights at a glance:
One software for all FP Series PLCs.
5 programming languages (instruction list, ladder diagram, function block diagram,
sequential function chart, structured text) available for all PLCs.
Program organisation units, task and project management provide clear structure.
Reuse of ready-made functions and function blocks saves time for programming and debugging.
Online monitoring and diagnostics.
Forcing – Turning off input and output contacts via the PC.
Modem and Ethernet communication for remote programming, service and diagnostics.
Extensive comments – online documentation created hand in hand with the program.
6 languages are supported: English, German, French, Italian, Spanish and Japanese. 
