CPX – Festo Maintenance Tool What does the CPX-FMT do?

Reading and visualising dynamic data for parameterisation or

diagnostics often costs up to 30% of the total programming expenditure

for a system and requires specialists. The Festo Maintenance Tool for

CPX makes this data instantly visible and usable without the need for

programming skills.

Benefit:

Enormous reduction in costs thanks to the program's ease of use, which

allows multiple use of existing IT infrastructures and offers convenient,

optimised diagnostics options without in-house engineering.

CPX – Festo Maintenance Tool What is the FMT a useful tool for?

• For configuration, parametrisation, commissioning and

testing CPX valve terminals,

(All packed in only one PC-software)

• For simple visualisation of device and signal statuses without a

SCADA system or programming SCADA = Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition

• For fast error analysis with CPX system and diagnostic

visualisation

• For fast and easy maintenance
