Super PLC · FMD series
An open-board Super PLC with built-in Ethernet, 16 multi-function digital I/O and 10 analog I/O — a favourite of system integrators and OEMs deploying hundreds or thousands of units.
Overview
The FMD88-10 packs a remarkable amount of PLC hardware into a low-cost, small-footprint circuit board. Its open-board design plus the Ladder + TBASIC software lets users finish complex projects far faster than ladder-only PLCs or single-board computers that demand C expertise and aren't field-programmable.
Built in are 8 digital inputs (2 high-speed encoders, 4 pulse-frequency measurement, 4 interrupts), 8 digital outputs (4 PWM, 3 stepper controls), 8 analog inputs and 2 analog outputs — expandable to 128 digital I/O via EXP boards. It also works with TRi's free OEM tools for remote, protected field upgrades.
