- Network information notification
If the network information notification setting is enabled, the AFPX-COM5 notifies the network
information to the FP-X on completion of the initialization of Ethernet. (Ethernet is initialized after the
power turns on, and when the unit is restarted after the change in settings.) The information is notified by
the data area write command ("WD") of 10 words from the information area first number with
MEWTOCOL. (For the memory area, "DT" is fixed. For the unit number, "EE" is fixed.) Using this
notification enables the completion of the initialization of Ethernet to be confirmed in a ladder program
and to start communication.)
When using the general-purpose communication, start the communication after receiving the data area
write command for the network information notification and after the response timeout time.
[Sample program] (Set DT10000 in the network information notification area.)
- Network information confirmation
When selecting the computer link and client setting, the network information can be confirmed from the
FP-X by enabling the network information confirmation setting. It can be confirmed by reading the
confirmation area by the MEWTOCOL data area read command ("RD"). (For the memory area, "DT" is
fixed. The unit number is arbitrary.) If the network information confirmation setting is enabled, the AFPX-
COM5 responds to the MEWTOCOL data area read command for the confirmation area regardless of
unit numbers.
