A Host Link Unit is required to interface a computer running LSS to the PC.
Using an Optical Host Link Unit also enables the use of optical fiber cable to
connect the FIT to the PC. Wired Host Link Units are available when desired.
(Although FIT does not have optical connectors, conversion to optical fiber
cable is possible by using Converting Link Adapters.)
The FIT is an OMRON computer with specially designed software that allows
you to perform all of the operations that are available with the GPC or LSS.
Programs can also be output directly to an EPROM chip, floppy disk drive, or
printing device without any additional interface units. The FIT has an EPROM
writer and two 3.5” floppy disk drives built in.
A Peripheral Interface Unit or Host Link Unit is required to interface the
FIT to the PC. Using an Optical Host Link Unit also enables the use of optical
fiber cable to connect the FIT to the PC. Wired Host Link Units are available
when desired. (Although FIT does not have optical connectors, conversion to
optical fiber cable is possible by using Converting Link Adapters.)
Other than its applications described above, the PROM Writer can be
mounted to the PC’s CPU to write programs to EPROM chips.
Other than its applications described above, the Floppy Disk Interface Unit
can be mounted to the PC’s CPU to interface a floppy disk drive and write
programs onto floppy disks.
Other than its applications described above, the Printer Interface Unit can be
mounted to the PC’s CPU to interface a printer or X-Y plotter to print out pro-
grams in either mnemonic or ladder-diagram form.
