PROCEDURES BEFORE OPERATION
This chapter describes the procedures before operation.
1.
Configuring a network system
Configure a network system. ( Page 14 SYSTEM CONFIGURATION,  Page 13 Wiring precautions)
2.
Setting parameters of the master station
• IP address setting (such as IP address, subnet mask)
• CC-Link IEF Basic setting ( Page 34 Settings for the Master Station in MELSEC iQ-R/MELSEC iQ-F,  Page 41
Settings for the Master Station in MELSEC-Q/L)
Actually connected devices can be detected by the automatic detection of connected device and reflected in
the network configuration setting. ( Page 36 Automatic detection of connected device)
In the network configuration setting, communication settings, such as IP addresses and subnet masks, and
writing/reading parameters that are inherent in the slave stations can also be performed to the slave stations.
(Some slave stations does not support these features.)
3.
Configure the necessary settings of the slave station such as the IP address and subnet mask. (Manual for the slave
station used)
4.
Write parameters to the CPU module on the master station. (Operating manual for the tool used)
5.
Start up the slave stations.
6.
Cyclic transmission starts if the CPU module on the master station is powered off and on or reset.
7.
Diagnosing a network
Check the status of a network by executing the CC-Link IE Field Network Basic diagnostics. ( Page 43 CC-Link IE Field
