The FCM Family — Overview

Although the standard FCM is designed for the most universal usage, some additional FCM variations have been released to support online operation for special hardware or to optimize the code generation for low-end microcontrollers. However, the GUI of all FCM products is almost the same.

The FCM versions may be devided into the following groups:

• Development of fuzzy systems of unrestricted complexity, output of universal C source code and interpretable code and universal hardware support by an online monitor interface:
  • FCM-Standard

• FCM-Versions with dedicated hardware support (supporting the fuzzy co-processor FP-3000 (Omron), for example):
  • The FCM-3000 operates on an FP-3000 adapter board and generates a special C code which performes an appropriate access to the FP-3000 processor.
  • The FCM-SOFT supports the online operation of a VMEbus board containing an FP-3000 processor (restricted version, does not contain all the features mentioned in the general product description).
  • The FCM-TEAM supports a microcontroller board with many analog and digital I/O lines (online operation).
  • The FCM-SPS is used for direct programming of a fuzzy module of a programmable controller containing an FP-3000 (Omron).
  • The FCM-Modicon supports fuzzy programming of an AEG-Modicon programmable controller.

• For the generation of source code for special microprocessors/controllers special FCM versions with reduced complexity are available to obtain optimized object, assembler or integer C code, respectively:
  • FCM-I3HD-CINT (for microcontroller NEC 78K0,78K3, V series)
  • FCM-I3HD-75X (for microcontroller of the NEC 75X family)
  • FCM-I3HD-17K (for microcontroller of the NEC 17K family)
  • FCM-PX-1500 (for microcontroller family Panasonic MN1500)
  • FCM-HC11 (for microcontroller 68HC11)
  • FCM-8051 (for microcontroller of the 8051 family)
  • FCM-µC (universal for microcontrollers)
  • FCM-T800 (for Inmos Transputer T805)
