checks the station that executes the loopback.
For example, in the system shown below, where the IN/OUT connectors of station
number 5 are connected in reverse, conduct a loop test using the GX Developer
connected to remote master station.
The monitoring screen below is displayed after the loop test has been executed, and
station No. 5 is detected as the receive direction error station.
