Maintenance Communication Via Hmi-Ethernet Port - IDEC FC6A-C16K1CE Communications Manual

Maintenance Communication via HMI-Ethernet port

It is possible to use the HMI-Ethernet port of an HMI module connected to the CPU module to perform maintenance
communication with network-enabled devices such as computers and operator interfaces.
It is possible to monitor and change FC6A Series MicroSmart device values from, download user programs from, and upload user
programs to an external device connected to the network.
The HMI-Ethernet port can be used to add a maximum of eight connections to the connections of Ethernet port 1 (up to eight
connections), which is equipped as standard on the CPU module of the FC6A Series MicroSmart.
The maintenance communication server can be assigned to the expanded connections (up to eight) provided by the HMI-Ethernet
port.
