POINT
(1) When the external device and the Q series C24 connected in n:1 and m:n
configurations
When the send signal of each device is connected as shown below, if the
"Output control input" is turned ON at two or more devices, the relevant
devices output (send) data at the same time.
For the external device to transfer data normally,
• "Output control input" must be turned ON only when sending data.
• "Output control input" must be turned OFF when not sending data.
The Q series C24 side automatically controls the output control input.
