Communication Structure

This section describes the structure of communications using a fixed buffer.
(1) Data flow
In communications using a fixed buffer, data is sent/received using dedicated instructions.
• Sending data: BUFSND instruction
• Receiving data: BUFRCV instruction or BUFRCVS instruction
When the "Procedure Exist" control method is used, the CPU module and the connected device communicate on
a 1:1 basis. The CPU module sends/receives data to/from the connected device while handshaking with the
connected device.
When the "No Procedure" control method is used, the CPU module sends/receives data to/from the connected
device in a non-procedural manner.
CPU module
(2) Connected devices where data communications can be performed
Data communications can be performed with the following connected devices.
• Devices in Ethernet where an E71 is connected
• Devices connected with the router relay function
When using each fixed buffer (numbers 1 to 16) as shown in the figure below, set the destination devices and
usage conditions (e.g. for sending/receiving and "Procedure Exist"/"No Procedure") in the open setting to fix a
connected device to each buffer.
