Fieldbus configuration

Before a slave can be connected (e.g. bus node CPX-FB23-24) to the CC-Link master, various configura­
tion settings must be made, e.g.:
– Number of connected slaves
– Number of stations to be connected to the system again during a scanning cycle
– Status if there is a CPU fault in the main computer
– Station data (settings of the slave):
– Station type (CPX-FB23-24: Remote device station)
– CC-Link slave address (1 ... 64)
– Function module F24
– Protocol version CC-Link version 2.0 or 1.1 (è Note)
– Optimisation type: cycle-time- or station-optimised
The configuration settings are saved in the master station buffer memory. The settings can, for ex­
ample, be set as follows (in some cases dependent on the master):
– With the GX Developer
– Through manual programming using PLC code
General information on the fieldbus CC-Link is found in the documentation for your CC-
Link master and for the relevant control systems (e.g. from Mitsubishi).
An overview can be found under www.cc-link.org.
Note
In a configuration with single cycle setting (è Tab. 2.9) the bus node in the master must
be configured as CC-Link 1.1 slave.
