6.6 Signals Related to Communication
The control signals for the expansion slot are assigned to the built-in expansion slots (slot 1: EXT1,
slot 2: EXT2) and the external expansion slot (slot 3: external EXT). The assignment of these areas
differs according to the mounted interface card.

communication card (Y: 256 points)
R register (R: 10 words)
(Note 1) This interface assignment differs according to the communication card being used. Thus,
when sharing the PLC program with a different interface card, each mounted
communication card must be identified.
(Note 2) Depending on the mounted interface card, expansion slot 3 may not be usable.
(Note 3) Refer to the "C6/C64/C64T Network Manual BNP-B2373" for details on each
communication function.
