Why Choose the ABB FM562 2-Axis Positioning Module?

The ABB FM562 positioning module, order code 1SAP233100R0001, is a dedicated S500 I/O module for two-axis motion control within ABB AC500 and AC500-eCo PLC systems. It provides pulse train outputs for two axes and integrates profile generators for simple motion control applications.

With RS422 differential pulse outputs, the FM562 can provide direct connections to suitable stepper or servo drives. Each axis has two 24 V DC digital inputs, which can be used for functions such as axis enable or limit-switch monitoring.

The FM562 supports pulse frequencies from 0 to 250 kHz and provides configurable pulse output modes including clockwise/counter-clockwise and pulse/direction. PLCopen-style motion control function blocks are available through the ABB PS552-MC-E library, supporting structured integration into AC500 motion applications.

Key Advantages

  • Two-axis positioning: Provides pulse train control for two independent motion axes.
  • High-speed pulse output: Supports an output frequency range up to 250 kHz.
  • RS422 interface: Differential pulse outputs are suitable for direct connection to compatible stepper and servo drives.
  • Integrated profile generators: Supports simple motion-control tasks without requiring an external positioning controller.
  • 24 V DC digital inputs: Two inputs per axis can be used for axis enable or limit-switch functions.
  • PLCopen motion control: Supports function-block based programming using the PS552-MC-E library.
  • Flexible system integration: Suitable for central expansion and decentralised AC500 automation architectures with compatible communication interface modules.

Two-Axis Motion Control for ABB AC500 Systems

The ABB FM562 combines two-axis pulse train generation with integrated profile generators to provide a compact motion-control solution for AC500 automation systems. Its RS422 differential outputs support suitable servo and stepper drive interfaces, while the dedicated 24 V DC inputs provide convenient signals for axis enable and limit-switch functions.

For application programming, the FM562 uses PLCopen-style motion control function blocks contained in the PS552-MC-E library. The module can be used for central expansion of compatible AC500 or AC500-eCo CPUs and for decentralised expansion when paired with suitable ABB communication interface modules. The FM562 is supported by V2 CPU configurations and is not supported by AC500-eCo V3 or AC500 V3 CPUs.
