(3) To learn about data communication functions and detailed
explanations
(a) To learn about the communication functions
• Section 3.4 describes an overview of the serial communication module
functions.
(b) To learn about detailed explanations of the communication functions
• The basic communication methods are described in Chapters 5 to 7.
• Special functions are described in the User's Manual (Application).
(4) To learn about data communication functions and programming
(a) To learn how to read data from and written to the programmable controller
CPU
• Data is read from and written to the programmable controller CPU with a
communication function using the MC protocol.
Details are described in the Reference Manual.
• Appendix 7 describes an overview of the communication support tool (MX
Component) that supports communication using the MC protocol.
(b) To learn how to send and receive data between the programmable controller
CPU and the external devices

non procedure protocol or the bidirectional protocol.
• Chapter 6 explains details of the communication functions and
programming using the non procedure protocol.
• Chapter 7 explains details of the communication functions and
programming using the bidirectional protocol.
(c) To learn how to transfer data between a programmable controller CPU and
an external device using the protocol of the external device
• With the pre-defined protocol function, data can be transferred between
the QJ71C24N(-R2/R4) and external devices.
The details are described in the Operating Manual (Pre-defined protocol
support function).
(5) To learn how to check for error occurrences and take corrective
actions
