Array electronic FAB2 Series User manual

USER'S MANUAL
Preface
Preface
Thank you for choosing the FAB2 series intelligent controller. We
recommend that you take some time to read this manual before using FAB2
products. You will nd many more advantageous properties of FAB2, which will
greatly simplify your operations of the FAB2.
FAB2 is a type of intelligent controller, which uses function blocks for
programming and is provided with a removable LCD display. Function blocks
enable the control functions of a PLC to be fulfilled without a large number
of instructions and complicated programs. When several functions blocks are
linked together in a specic way, relatively complicated control functions can be
implemented.
FAB2 has a wide range of applications. It can be used for the automation of
an extensive range of electrical and mechanical equipments, ow control, building
automation and many other elds. To some degree, FAB2 really makes automation
enter every corner of our daily life, from home to commerce, manufacturing,
mining, utility and service sectors of the economy. This manual will describe in
detail the function features and operating methods for FAB2.

FAB2 Intelligent Controller
IMPORTANT APPLICATION NOTES:
1. The AF-C232/D232, AF-C485/D485, and LCD board, when a FAB2 is
powered, must not be plugged in or out.
2. The default password for FAB2 is 0001.
3. The default address for FAB2 is 000.
4. When programming, the output of two function blocks must not be connected
to one point, except for the CW function block.
For example:
The above way is wrong, and the correct way is as follows:
