TERMS

A generic term for the main A/D converter module and extension A/D converter module
A memory in an intelligent function module, where data (such as setting values and monitoring values)
exchanged with a CPU module are stored
A high-speed and large-capacity open field network that is based on Ethernet (1000BASE-T)
A function by which data are periodically exchanged among stations on the same network using link devices
(RX, RY, RWw, and RWr)
A generic term for cyclic transmission and transient transmission
An instruction that simplifies programming for using functions of intelligent function modules
A process of stopping data link if a data link error occurs
The abbreviation for the NZ2EX2B-60AD4 CC-Link IE Field Network extension analog-digital converter
module
A generic term for the extension A/D converter module and extension D/A converter module
The abbreviation for the NZ2EX2BN-60DA4 CC-Link IE Field Network extension digital-analog converter
module
A generic term for the extension input module and extension output module
A generic term for extension modules where digital signals can be input
A remote module with no CC-Link IE Field Network communication function. This module cannot be used as a
single module. However, connecting the module to the main module will increase the number of I/O points per
station.
A generic term for extension modules where digital signals can be output
The product name of the software package for the MELSEC programmable controllers
Another term for the CC-Link IE Field Network remote I/O module
A station that exchanges I/O signals (bit data) and I/O data (word data) with another station by cyclic
transmission. This station responds to a transient transmission request from another station and also issues a
transient transmission request to another station.
A device (RX, RY, RWr, or RWw) in a module on CC-Link IE Field Network
Word data that indicates the operating status and data link status of a module on CC-Link IE Field Network
Bit data that indicates the operating status and data link status of a module on CC-Link IE Field Network
A station that performs cyclic transmission and transient transmission with the master station and other local
stations. The station is controlled by programs in the CPU module or other equivalent modules on the station.
The abbreviation for the NZ2GF2BN-60AD4 CC-Link IE Field Network main analog-digital converter module
A generic term for the main A/D converter module and main D/A converter module
The abbreviation for the NZ2GF2BN-60DA4 CC-Link IE Field Network main digital-analog converter module
A module with the CC-Link IE Field Network communication function, which can be used as a single remote
module.
A station that controls the entire network. This station can perform cyclic transmission and transient
transmission with all stations. Only one master station can be used in a network.
A generic term for the CC-Link IE Field Network master/local module
A generic term for the following modules:
• CC-Link IE Field Network module
• CC-Link IE Controller Network module
• Ethernet interface module
• MELSECNET/H module
• MELSECNET/10 module
A station that includes two or more network modules. Data are passed through this station to stations on other
networks
The abbreviation for ZP.REMFR.
Buffer memory in a remote device station
A station that exchanges I/O signals (bit data) and I/O data (word data) with another station by cyclic
transmission. This station responds to a transient transmission request from another station.
A station that exchanges I/O signals (bit data) with the master station by cyclic transmission
