To set up a 1:1 computer link system, connect a computer to the CPU module using the computer link cable 4C (FC2A-
KC4C). The computer link cable 4C can be connected to port 1 directly. When connecting the cable to port 2 on the all-in-
one 16- or 24-I/O type CPU module, install an optional RS232C communication adapter (FC4A-PC1) to the port 2 con-
nector. When connecting to port 2 on the slim type CPU module, an optional RS232C communication module (FC4A-
HPC1) is needed. The RS232C communication adapter can also be installed on the HMI base module (FC4A-HPH1).
