The FX-USB-AW from Mitsubishi serves as a conversion interface module, intended to establish communication between FX series programmable logic controllers and computers equipped with USB interfaces. It is compatible with a range of controllers, including the FX0, FX1N, and FX3U, among others. This device facilitates bidirectional level conversion between RS-422 and USB standards, effectively linking older PLC technology with modern devices.
With a maximum baud rate of 115200 bps, it ensures fast data transmission rates. The current consumption of the module is specified at 15 mA when powered by the PLC's supply and 30 mA when deriving power from a USB connector on a PC. It also features a signal port to the PLC with an RS-422 interface using a Mini-DIN 8-pin male connector, while the cable connection employs a Mini-B plug female connector for USB. A 3-meter cable is included, although the total cable length can extend up to 5 meters. The FX-USB-AW thus provides an efficient solution for connecting FX PLCs to computers.
