Control FPWIN Pro7

Programming software Control FPWIN Pro with PLC open certification 

Control FPWIN Pro is the Panasonic programming software developed according to the international standard IEC 61131-3. Control FPWIN Pro is the universal software for all Panasonic PLCs and the ELC500 control unit.

  • Programs written in older versions will run with Control FPWIN Pro7.
  • Programs are compatible across FP series PLCs, e.g. FP0R programs will run with minor adjustments on FPΣ (Sigma) and FP7 PLCs.
  • Control FPWIN Pro7 offers a choice of editors, thus allowing you to select the programming language you are most familiar with.
