Unit Ver. 1.2 or later supports the 1:1 Host Link protocol for C200H, C1000H,
and C2000H CPU Units, which enables the use of host programs for 1:1 Host
Links created for these PLCs. A Host Link-compatible device selection func-
tion is also provided for complete compatibility with the C-series Host Link and
CVM1/CV-series Host Link.
Data transfer procedures (protocols) with general-purpose external devices
are created using the CX-Protocol to match the communications specifica-
tions (half-duplex or full-duplex, and start-stop synchronization) of the external
device.
These protocols are stored in the Serial Communications Boards or the Serial
Communications Unit, and enable data to be exchanged with general-pur-
pose external devices simply by executing the PMCR(260) instruction in the
CPU Unit.
Standard system protocols for exchanging data with OMRON devices (such
as Temperature Controllers, Intelligent Signal Processors, Bar Code Readers,
and Modems) are provided as a standard feature in the Serial Communica-
tions Boards, the Serial Communications Unit, and the CX-Protocol. The CX-
Protocol can also be used to change the standard system protocols according
to user requirements.
