Compatible with NEW Servo and CJ-series Analog Units
(Unit version Ver.3.3 or higher)
The FQM1 has become compatible with NEW AC Servo Motors/Drivers OMNUC G-series and SMARTSTEP 2-series, in addition
to the conventional OMNUC W-series. Also, new analog units are included in CJ-series Units to be used for FQM1 expansion.
■Compatible

OMNUC G-series R88D-GT/R88M-G
Connecting the FQM1 with SYSMAC SPU Units enables simplification of the changes in various control and/or operation conditions as well as high speed collection of large capacity data.
Using SYSMAC SPU Units makes time reduction for tooling change for each operation possible. Replacing memory cards also allows for easy
change of operations and/or conditions. During an inspection process, not only conditional changes but also inspection results can be saved securely.

The recipe function is used to write numeric values including
operation parameters and/or character string data at one time
to the CM (Controller Module) memory area. The recipe write
function makes tooling change of the device easy.
(Note: The recipe function can be used only in the “data collection mode”.)
* Create numeric values and character string data to be written to the
CM memory area in recipe data (CSV file) and stored beforehand in
a SYSMAC SPU Unit memory card.

No ladder program is required to develop recipe data.
The recipe function can save the CM memory because recipe
data is saved in the memory card of a SYSMAC SPU Unit,
which eliminates the need to save it in the CM data memory.
Recipe data can be written upon request from the CM or via
external devices including a PC.
Numeric values and character string data can be changed
even when a SYSMAC SPU Unit is in operation.
FQM1 corresponds with the absolute value encoder interface
of the special and high performance OMNUC G-series.

In addition to conventional high-speed type Analog Input Units
(CJ1W-ADG41), Analog Input Units (8/4 points), Analog output Units
(8/4/2 points), and Analog I/O Units (AD 4/DA 2 points) can be used.

High-precision trailing with little fluctuation is possible due to the high-speed

can be used during operation to change the pattern of the curve.

Application Examples
Non-stop processing, such as materials transfer, filling, and cutting
For example, marks on objects to be cut that are continually fed along a production line are
detected and cutting is performed continually without stopping the line. The encoder on a
measuring roll detects the feed amount supplied by a feed roll, and a cutter cuts with
speed-synced trailing along the mark detected by a mark sensor. The workpiece is cut after
synchronization. The origin is returned to after cutting is completed and the process is repeated.
●
Functions used: Electronic cam (operated by executing the PULSE OUTPUT instruction to synchronize
trailing of the slave axis based on the speed of the conveyor of the master axis)
●
Configuration example: FQM1-CM002 plus FQM1-MMP22 (with pulse I/O)

without stopping.
The high-speed cycle and high level of processing functions enable
synchronous control of electronic cams using either a cam table
method or a data processing method.
In particular, when the data processing method is used, it is possible
to realize a high-speed control cycle during processing, enabling the
cam to be changed during operation.
When using the cam table method, tables can be linked and used even
while switching cam tables, enabling high-resolution curves.

I/O Control Module Master Unit
For example, a sheet is fed continuously on a production line and cut to
the specified dimension without stopping the line.
The encoder on the measuring roll measures the length of the feed
amount, which serves as the basis of the operation of the cutter.
Cutting time (the blade intersection time) is synchronized to the line
speed, and the cutter is accelerated or decelerated in the remaining time
to cut to the preset dimension.

used: Electronic cam (operated by executing the PULSE OUTPUT
instruction on the target position multiplied by the curve table

approximation for the position of the slave axis or by using
