Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the main advantage of this PLC model?
A: Its main strength is combining 30 I/O points with strong communication (serial and Ethernet) in a compact, cost-effective unit.
Q: Can I connect a touchscreen HMI to it?
A: Yes, you can connect an HMI using the RS485 port or the Ethernet port with Modbus protocol.
Q: Is the built-in battery for the clock replaceable?
A> Typically, the RTC battery is internal and not user-replaceable. Its long life minimizes this concern.
Q: How do I start programming this controller?
A: Download the free programming software from Flexem, connect via the USB-C cable, and you can begin writing logic.
Q: What happens if I need more than 12 relay outputs?
A: You can add a digital output expansion module through the supported expansion board to increase your output count.
Q: Can it communicate with other brands of devices?
A> Absolutely. The standard Modbus support allows it to talk to thousands of different sensors, drives, and other PLCs.
Q: Is it suitable for a very dusty factory environment?
A: It has a good industrial-grade construction, but for extremely harsh conditions, consider installing it in a protected cabinet.
Q: From experience, what’s a common setup mistake?
A: Ensure the power supply is stable 220V AC and that communication wiring (especially RS485) uses correct polarity and termination.
