FP-08 programming panel is the programming tool for the PLCs from Delta, which can be used to edit, run, monitor, forced set/reset, enable/disable PLC programs.
This manual describes the FP-08 programming panel, a handheld device used to edit, run and monitor programs on Fatek PLCs. It covers the panel’s physical appearance, keypad groups, the 1 M‑bit FLASH memory pack, and the RS‑232 COM port for OS updates.
The document explains how to connect the panel to a PLC via the dedicated communication cable, how to edit ladder and register data, monitor digital status and register values, and control PLC run/stop functions. Flowcharts and key‑sequence tables illustrate each operation mode.
