The FX Family
The FX family of PLCs is highly flexible, enabling fast and efficient configuration for the application at hand. It is the ideal choice for simple
control systems requiring up to 30 I/O (FX3S), or a more complex system with up to 384 I/Os (FX3U).
FX Standards Compliance: All FX products are manufactured under ISO 9000 quality assurance and 14001 environmental management
standards. In addition, most FX PLC products are certified by internationally recognized standards agencies. The “Ratings” section of the
specifications tables lists the approvals for each product. The approval agencies are as follows:

Configuration Rules
CAUTION: For full configuration details please refer to the respective hardware manuals.
1. Number of input/output points
FX3U/FX3UC: The total number of combined input/output points and remote I/O points on CC-Link or AS-i system must be 384 points
or less on the whole system, where the number of local I/O points and remote I/O points cannot exceed 256 points.
FX3G: The total number of combined input/output points and remote I/O points on CC-Link must be 256 points or less on the whole
system, where the maximum number of local I/O points and remote I/O points cannot exceed 128 points.

Note: FX3S/FX1S controllers can generally be considered as standalone controllers so no explicit configuration requirements exist.
However, for configuration of adapters, boards, and memory cassettes, etc. please refer to the FX3S/FX1S hardware manual.
FX5U: The power is supplied to each connected device from the built-in power supply of the CPU module, powered input/output
modules, or extension power supply modules. The power consumed varies depending on the type of product added.
