 Memory and I/O control
Equipped with an adequate program memory and operating memory capacity
The body is compact; however, the standard program memory capacity of FP/FPSH is as large as 16k/60k steps, and when  
optional  memory  is  added,  3k/10k  steps. A  variety  of  operation  memory  types  are  also  available. The  maximum  number  of  
controlled  I/O  points  is  ,048  (,048/8,19  for  FP/FPSH  when  using  remote  I/O  units),  which  is  sufficient  for  medium-scale  
control.
Addition of optional memory
FP: 
 Addition of optional memory to the CPU unit allows it  
to store up to 3k program steps, provides it with the 
clock/calendar function, and makes comment writing 
possible.
FPSH:   An optional IC card can be used as program memory  
or expanded data memory.
I/O point expansion by adding backplanes
See page 14 for details.
Optional memory
for FPSH
CPU backplane
 H type backplane
Up to three backplanes can be added to one master backplane. 
Now up to 3 units can be connected and up to ,048 I/O points 
controlled.
NEW!
Expansion backplane (8 slots)
Expansion backplane
Master backplane (8 slots)
(The backplane can be used as either a master 
or expansion backplane.)

 Conventional backplane
Only one backplane can be added to one master backplane. 
When both the master and expansion backplanes are of the 14-
module type, up to 1,600 I/O points can be controlled.
