With the network diagnostic function of GX Developer, the line status can easily be
checked and diagnosed.
To conduct the network diagnostics, the network parameters (station number setting
switch, mode setting switch, number of modules, network settings, and common
parameters) must be set.
However, even if not all the parameters were set, the loop test can be performed while
the "T.PASS" LED is on.
The network diagnostics function allows the diagnostics of the network module while
maintaining it in the online status when a problem occurs during system operation.
The following table lists the tests that can be conducted for each network system:

For details on the operations of each function, see the GX Developer Operating
