Linee guida per la selezione & Soluzioni alternative

5.1 Criteri di selezione fondamentali

Selection Dimension	Configurazione consigliata	Not Recommended Scenario
Punti di I/O	16IN/16OUT, ideal for small equipment	Sopra 32 points requires expansion; recommend FX5U-64MT directly
Tipo di uscita	Transistor output for high-speed switching & pulse control	Large inductive load with frequent on-off; choose FX5U-32MR relay type
Power Type	• Industrial mains: Tipo CA (ES/ESS)	Voltage fluctuation site requires voltage stabilizer
