FX3U-CNV-BD Communication Module for use with FX Series

The FX3U-CNV-BD is a communication module designed for use with Mitsubishi’s FX3U series PLCs (Programmable Logic Controllers). This module provides connectivity options to enhance the communication capabilities of the FX3U PLCs, enabling them to interface with various devices and networks.

Here are some key points about the FX3U-CNV-BD:

1. Compatibility: The FX3U-CNV-BD is specifically designed to be used with the FX3U series PLCs. It is a compact module that can be easily attached to the base unit of the FX3U PLC.
2. Communication Interface: This module typically provides an RS-232C communication port. The RS-232C interface is a standard serial communication protocol used for connecting peripheral devices and allowing communication between the PLC and other serial devices like computers, HMIs (Human Machine Interfaces), and other PLCs.
3. Installation: The FX3U-CNV-BD is installed directly onto the main unit of the FX3U PLC. It attaches to the left side of the base unit without the need for additional mounting hardware.
4. Usage: Once installed, the RS-232C port can be configured and programmed using Mitsubishi’s programming software (GX Works2 or GX Developer). The communication settings, such as baud rate, parity, and data bits, can be adjusted to match the requirements of the connected device.
5. Application: The FX3U-CNV-BD is suitable for applications requiring serial communication, such as data logging, device monitoring, and control. It allows the FX3U PLC to communicate with various external devices and systems, expanding its versatility in industrial automation.

By using the FX3U-CNV-BD communication module, users can enhance the communication capabilities of their FX3U PLCs, enabling better integration and data exchange with other equipment and systems in an industrial setup.
