Availability Precautions

• When accessing from MELSOFT products (excluding GX Works3), the control
system IP address can be used. When accessing from GX Works3 and a GOT,
use the IP address of system A or B.
• When system switching occurs during file access, file access is interrupted. When
accessing files, use the IP address of system A or B.
• When system switching occurs due to a timeout or communication error in TCP/IP
communications, the connection needs to be re-opened.
• When the control system IP address is used, neither the write operation nor the
control operation can be performed. Use the IP address of system A or B.

• When system switching occurs during file access, file access is interrupted. When
accessing files, use the IP address of system A or B.
• When system switching occurs due to a timeout or communication error in TCP/IP
communications, the connection needs to be re-opened.
 • In TCP/IP communications, the control system IP address can be used only when
the Ethernet-equipped module side is set as Passive open. When it is set as Active
open, use the IP address of system A or B.
• In UDP/IP communications, the control system IP address can be used only when
the Ethernet-equipped module receives data.
• When system switching occurs due to a timeout or communication error in TCP/IP
communications, the connection needs to be re-opened.
• When using the protocol used for sending or sending/receiving data, use the IP
address of system A or B.
