Available communication functions
PLC link
MEWTOCOL-COM
(Note 3)
MODBUS-RTU
General-purpose communication
(Note 1) For PLC link, only one port may be used (either COM0 port that is built in the Control Unit as standard
equipment, or COM1 port on a cassette).
(Note 2) The COM4 port supports only MEWTOCOL-COM communication. In addition, the communication
parameters (unit number, communication format, baud rate) when the power is ON are the same as
the settings of the COM3 port. After RUN, you can also change the conditions by the SYS1 instruction.
(Note 3) The AFPX-COM5 Cassette (Ethernet type) does not support MODBUS-RTU (master / slave).
