3) While a RS instruction is being driven, change of D8120 is prohibited.
To change D8120, set the RS instruction to OFF, set D8120 to "0", and then set a new value to D8120.
4) In the interlink mode, set the amount of received data n to "31" or more.
If it is set to "30" or less, the control line ER (DTR) is set to OFF as soon as the PLC receives data. As a
result, the received data may be partially skipped.
5) Do not use another instruction which uses the same communication port. If such an instruction is used,
communication may not function normally.
