Precautions for Correct Use
• Always use an Ethernet switch for tag data links in the network.
If EtherNet/IP tag data links (cyclic communications) are used with a repeating hub, the com-
munications load on the network will increase. This will increase collisions and may prevent
stable communications.
• Do not bend the communications cables past its natural bending radius or pull on it with
excessive force.
• Do not place heavy objects on top of the communications cables or other wiring lines.
• Do not exceed the communications distance that is given in the specifications and use the
specified communications cable.
• Set the switching hub connected to the K6CM devices as follows.
