Advanced MELSEC iQ-F Series
Simple and convenient parameter settings
With MELSEQ iQ-F, various device settings that conventionally had to be programmed can be input in table format.
Easily set the built-in functions as well as expansion devices just by inputting values into the parameters.
The program’s execution trigger can also be set with the parameters.
[Functions set with parameters]
Settings for CPU parameters, Ethernet port, RS-485 communication port, input response time, expansion board, memory card, security, etc.
Settings for expansion adapter, intelligent function module and program parameters
Memory area for each application
The CPU module has 64 k steps of program memory capacity, but the MELSEC iQ-F has a memory data area for each application, so all 64 k steps can be used as the program area.
Comments and statements can be written freely without affecting the program area.
[Maximum number of characters]
Comment: 1024 characters Statement: 5000 characters
MELSEC iQ-F Series stores the program and devices in non-volatile memory such as Flash ROM, so no battery is required.
Flexible internal devices
A variety of devices including new latch relays and link relays, and expanded timers and counters are available.
The number of device points can be reassigned and used in the internal memory.
●Providing the convenience of special devices In addition to the conventional special devices, up to 12000 points of convenient system devices compatible with upper level devices are added. New upper level compatible system devices  SM/SD0 to 4099 Conventional convenient devices
| ●Freely customize the latch range setting The latch range can be set for each device, so the latch clear range can be selected during the clearing operation.  | ●Handy timer and counter settings The timer and counter properties are determined by data type and how instruction is written, so programs can be created regardless of the device number. Timers:
Counters:

Dramatically more dedicated instructions
A great number of dedicated instructions have been added since the FX3 Series.
| [FX3] 510 types | → | [FX5] 1014 types |
The newly added instructions include convenient ones that are interchangeable with the MELSEC iQ-R and dedicated instructions for built-in functions.
(Programs created with GX Works2 can also be read in and converted.)
Intuitive and easy-to-understand arithmetic operations
Symbols can be input in the arithmetic operations making it easy and intuitive to describe programs.
High-performance built-in high-speed counter function
Input and measure three modes by setting the parameters.
- Normal mode
- Pulse density measurement mode
- Rotation speed measurement mode
Up to 32 tables can be set for the high-speed comparison table and up to 128 tables for the multi-point output high-speed comparison table. The DHCMOV instruction can be used to read the latest values from the special registers.
Reinforced built-in positioning function
Positioning is easy using table operations. Simple linear interpolation operation is possible by using the DRVTBL with multiple table operation and the multiple axis table drive DRVMUL.
Diverse table operation settings for multi-speed and interrupt positioning, etc.
Inverter communication command function
*: For built-in RS-485 and RS-485 expansion boards
The built-in Mitsubishi inverter protocol makes it possible to use inverter communication instructions to control a Mitsubishi inverter connected with RS-485 communication.
- IVCK: Operation monitor
- IVDR: Operation control
- IVRD: Parameter read
- IVWR: Parameter write
- IVBWR: Parameter batch write
- IVMC: Multiple command (2 types of settings and 2 types of read)
Built-in Ethernet function
Communication is set with parameters easily.
Functions including the diagnosis function from GX Works3, SLMP function, socket communication function and IP address change function and unauthorized access from an external source can be prevented with remote password.
MODBUS function
The MODBUS function can be used with parameter settings and ADPRW (MODBUS master communication instruction [data read/write.]) Communicate with devices up to 1200 m away using the RS-485 communication adapter.
Standard function/function block function
110 types of basic standard function and function blocks are provided.
These can be used as parts by dragging and dropping, so when used together with dedicated instructions, programming time can be greatly reduced.
