If one or more parameters in the PLC Setup in the CPU Unit has been previ-
ously changed, always upload the PLC Setup from the CPU Unit and make any
new changes in the uploaded copy so that you do not overwrite the previous
changes.
Select the Custom Option and set the baud rate to 115,200 bps (High-speed
1:N NT Link Mode). The format does not need to be changed.
Set the mode to the 1:N NT Link Mode.
If only one PT is connected to the port and it has a unit number of 0, set this
parameter to 1. Otherwise, set the highest unit number of all the PTs that are
connected.
