In the token-ring mode in an Optical Ring System (H-PCF cable or GI cable),
data transmission will be unaffected even by a cable or connector break at
one location in the ring connection. With the fiber-optic cable wired in a ring
shape, a break at one point will simply cause the transmission to be routed in
the other path.
Even with transmission path duplication, the network will be broken if discon-
nections occur in two or more places. In the token-ring mode in an Optical
Ring System (H-PCF cable or GI cable), the location of a disconnection can
be detected and can be identified by means of the status display for all nodes.
This function can be used to prevent system crashes in advance, by perform-
ing maintenance when a disconnection occurs at one place.
In the token-ring mode in an Optical Ring System (H-PCF cable or GI cable),
connection data can be read for all of the nodes configured in the network.
The information that can be read includes the order in which the nodes are
connected and which of two optical connectors is connected to which node.
Special support software (Controller Link Support Software, Ver. 2.00 or later)
is required in order to read the node connection configuration data.
By mounting the CS1W-CLK13, CS1W-CLK12-V1, CS1W-CLK53, or CS1W-
CLK52-V1 to a CS1D PLC, Controller Link Units can be used in duplex opera-
tion. If an error occurs at the active Controller Link Unit, the standby Controller
Link Unit will take over operation, and communications operation will continue.
Also, Controller Link Units with errors can be replaced without turning OFF
the power (i.e., online replacement).
