The Q series has the multiple PLC system function that also permits PLC, process, motion, and personal computer CPUs to be loaded
together, enabling utilization of their respective strong points and construction of an optimal system. A single process CPU can perform both
fast loop control and sequence control simultaneously.
The motion CPU uses SSCNET that rapidly controls up to 96 axes in a single system and saves wiring. A personal computer CPU can
access I/O and intelligent function modules from a C-written application program. It can also communicate with higher level devices from an
Ethernet communication port.
Multiple Q series PLC CPUs can be used together to allow a single system to exercise controls different in tact time, e.g. sequence control
and data processing.
The GOT-A900/F900 series can be connected by the CPU RS-232 port.
Connected with a serial communication module, Ethernet or further a Q series
high-speed bus, the GOT-A900 series can achieve fast response.
The GOT-A900 series is also compatible with a multiple PLC system. By specifying
the CPU No. at the time of monitor device setting, you can monitor the data of each
CPU on a single screen. You can also monitor the ladder of each CPU.

Basic PID
2-degree-of-freedom PID
A motion CPU is good at
advanced, complex motion
control. It can speed up motion
operation cycles and control up
to 32-axis per CPU. The
Q173CPU (32-axis) and
Q172CPU (8-axis) are available.
(For details, refer to the Q series
motion controller manual.)
The process CPU includes
process control instructions that
achieve high-level loop control,
e.g. two-degree-of-freedom
PID, sample PI and auto tuning
instructions. (For details, refer
to the MELSEC process control
manual.)

If load in excess of a CPU's processing capability is applied to a
large scaled system due to a large program size, using multiple
CPUs to distribute the load improves the overall performance of
the system.
When one process requires fast processing and the other does
not, they can be handled respectively by two CPUs, providing
stable (unaffected by the other process) and rapid control.

1.The process control instructions (52 types), which achieve high-level loop control such as the two-degree-of-freedom PID, sample PI, blend PI and
auto tuning instructions, are available.
2.The fast processing of PID loop operation enables max. 10ms control cycles. This increases the number of loops that can be executed simultaneously
(practically up to 200 loops). This processing is also applicable to applications that require fast control cycles, extending the range of applied

enable direct wiring of sensors (flow
meters, pressure gauges, other sensors)
and control devices (control valves). (An
external isolating amplifier is not required
between the analog modules and the
external devices.)
This reduces total hardware and working
costs.

modules (Q64TDV-GH, Q64TD) are also
available. The Q64TDV-GH also supports
micro voltage input.
