Scan List

Some devices indicate the data length as 30 bytes, but the meaning is the
same.
Make sure that the baud rates and number of transmission bytes for the
MECHATROLINK-compatible devices connected to the PCU are set to the
same settings as shown in the above table.
The MECHATROLINK-compatible devices that can be connected to the PCU
are shown in the following table.
Category
Servo Drive
R88D-KN
(with MECHATROLINK-II communications)
R88D-GN
(with MECHATROLINK-II communications)
R88D-WT
(equipped with FNY-NS115 MECHATROLINK-II I/F Unit)
R88D-WN
(equipped with built-in MECHATROLINK-II communications)
R7D-ZN
(equipped with built-in MECHATROLINK-II communications)
The version of R88D-WT@ W-series Servo Drives used must support FNY-
NS115 MECHATROLINK-II I/F Unit. FNY-NS115 MECHATROLINK-II I/F Unit
can be installed in R88D-WT@ W-series Servo Drives with version 39 or later.
(For details, refer to 3-1-2 MECHATROLINK-II I/F Unit.) The version of R88D-
WT@ W-series Servo Drives is shown on the nameplate located on the side of
the Servo Drive. Make sure that the Servo Drive is version 39 or later. Earlier
versions will not function properly.
The settings required to use MECHATROLINK with the PCU are described
here.
The scan list is used to register the MECHATROLINK devices connected to
the PCU. The PCU connects the axes registered in the scan list to MECHA-
TROLINK communications, detects these axes, and monitors communica-
tions for them.
The PCU receives positioning commands allocated in the Work Area (Axis
Operating Memory Area) of the CPU Unit and controls positioning of the
Servo Drive. The Axis Operating Memory Areas are allocated based on the
scan list that is saved in the PCU's internal flash memory. Therefore, to use
the PCU, first the scan list must be created and saved, and the connected
Servo Drives must be registered in the list.
