In earlier models, when the host computer program used by the C-series Host
Link Unit was reused in a CS/CJ-series PLC, data could not be read normally
for some programs due to the differences in Host Link specifications.
When Serial Communications Units/Boards with Unit Ver. 1.2 or later are
used, however, the Board/Unit's Host Link specifications can be switched
according to the CPU Unit or other Unit in which the host computer program is
to be reused.
The Host Link specifications change according to the Host Link compatible
device mode that is selected.
• When the following commands for reading I/O memory (RR, RL, RH, RC,
RD, RJ, and RG) are received, the number of data words in each
response frame that is returned to the host is different.
Command
RR CIO AREA READ
RL LINK AREA READ
RH HR AREA READ
RC PV READ
RD DM AREA READ
RJ AR AREA READ
RG T/C STATUS READ
• When the command for reading the status of the CPU Unit (MS) is
received, the response format that is returned to the host according to the
FAL/FALS instruction execution status is different.
Command
MS PROCESSOR STATUS READ
