The network/serial communications configuration of a PLC other than the one
originally connected to online to can be set as the target. The PLC that was originally
connected to online (called the relay PLC, see note 1), is relayed through to connect
to another PLC (called the target PLC, see note 2) to switch the online connection.
Note 1:
The relay PLC is the PLC to which an online connection was first made from the
computer through a network or serial connection.
Note 2:
The target PLC is the PLC from which the network configuration can be uploaded.

Direction connection from the CX-Integrator to serial communications using the
CompoWay/F protocol is also possible using RS-232C or RS-485 communications
without going through a PLC. The CompoWay/F network configuration can also be
uploaded.
