(5) Pairing open
(connection numbers 1 to 8; BFM#32 to 39 b7)

external device when using fixed buffer communication (either of the
procedure exist or no procedure can be designated).

(6) Existence confirmation
(connection numbers 1 to 8; BFM#32 to 39 b1)

an external device still operates normally when there is no communication
for a fixed period of time. The open processing for the connection with the
external device must have been completed.
Name of setting

(b) When an error occurs in the existence confirmation, the Ethernet module
performs the following processing.
• Forcibly closes the line and stores the error information in the error log
area (BFM#227 to 511) of the buffer memory.
• Turns off the open completion signal (BFM#20480) and stores the open
error code in BFM#124, 134, 144, 154, 164, 174, 184, 194.
(c) If the external device will be changed while a UDP/IP connection is open,
"No confirm" should be selected.
If "Confirm" is selected, the Ethernet module will confirm the existence of
the first destination after the UDP/IP connection is opened. Existence
confirmation is not performed for the changed destination, i.e. the newly
selected external device.
