LIST OF FUNCTIONS
The following table shows the list of functions of the built-in Ethernet of the CPU module.
Function Outline of system
Direct connection with Built-in Ethernet of CPU module and MELSOFT product (GX Works3, etc.) are
MELSOFT connected by single Ethernet cable without using a hub. Communication is done by
simply specifying the connection destination; you don't have to set the IP address.
MELSOFT connection Communication with MELSOFT products (GX Works3, etc.) is done within LAN such as
company internal LAN.
Connected CPU search Searches for built-in Ethernet (CPU module) connected with personal computer using
function GX Works3 within the same hub. Acquires IP address by selecting from search results
list.
MELSOFT diagnosis function Diagnoses built-in Ethernet of CPU module from GX Works3. (Ethernet diagnostics)
SLMP communication function Reads and writes PLC data from other device.
Predefined protocol support When the predefined protocol support function is used, data can be exchanged with the
function external device.
Socket communication function By using socket communication instructions, any data can be transferred from and to
the external devices connected through Ethernet using TCP or UDP.
MODBUS/TCP communication By using sequence program, MODBUS devices of the external devices connected
through Ethernet can be read/written.
File Transfer Function Using the dedicated FTP commands enables an external device to read out, write, and
(FTP server) delete individual data file.
Time setting function (SNTP Time information is collected from the time information server (SNTP server) connected
client) on the LAN at the specified timing, and the CPU module's time is automatically set.
Web server function CPU module diagnostics, device monitor, and device data read/write, etc., can be
performed from an Ethernet-connected device using a general-purpose Web browser.
IP filter function This function identifies IP address of the access source and prevents access by
unauthorized IP addresses.
Remote password Remote password setting can prevent unauthorized access from the outside and
enhance the security of the system.
IP address change function This function is provided to change the IP address of the CPU module by setting the
desired IP address to special registers from a peripheral unit or another unit and turning
ON a special relay.
Automatic detection of Detects devices supporting iQSS which are connected to the CPU module (built-in
connected devices Ethernet port), and automatically displays them on "List of devices" and "Device map
area" using an engineering tool.
Communication setting Reflects the communication settings (such as IP addresses) in devices supporting
reflection of Ethernet device iQSS in "Device map area" which are connected over Ethernet.
Sensor parameter read/write Reads/writes parameters from/to iQSS-compatible devices.
