*1 The value indicates the number of connectable stages when the repeater hub is used. Contact the manufacturer of
the switching hub for the number of connectable stages when using the switching hub.
This section explains the data codes used in the communication between the
Ethernet module and the external device or the PLC.
(1) The data codes used while communicating are listed below.
1) Ethernet module
Data can be communicated by selecting either binary code or ASCII code
in the data code setting of FX Configurator-EN or the PLC, as shown
below.
For more details about binary code/ASCII code changeover, refer to
Section 4.6, "Communication Settings".
