Description
An abbreviation for the engineering tool for Mitsubishi Electric Industrial PC, CW Workbench 4.
A dedicated function library used for controlling a MELIPC.
Another term for Mitsubishi Graphic Operation Terminal.
An abbreviation for Mitsubishi Electric Industrial PC, MI5122-VW
It comprises a main module, a power supply module, and a fan module.
A dedicated function library used for accessing another station on a network.
A product name for SWnDNN-MICONF. ("n" indicates its version)
A product name for a real-time operating system manufactured by Wind River Systems, Inc.
A device in which a real-time operating system VxWorks is embedded. The information acquired from a
programmable controller CPU or a CC-Link IE Field Network connected device via CC-Link IE Field Network can
be processed in this section.
A device in which Windows is embedded. Applications for processing complex calculations, such as data
analysis, to process various information can run in this section.
Station that carries out cyclic transmission of bit unit input/output signals and word unit input/output data.
This also supports transient transmission. Sends responses to transient transmissions (requests) from other
stations. Additionally, this issues transient transmissions (requests) to other stations.
This function uses a link device to periodically exchange data between stations on a network.
Generic term for local stations, remote I/O stations, remote device stations, and intelligent device stations.
Generic term for cyclic transmission and transient transmission.
Function that carries out communications with other stations at a request from the product.
An abbreviation for a fan module for Mitsubishi Electric Industrial PC, MI5FAN.
Station that controls the whole network. This can carry out cyclic transmission and transient transmission with all
stations. Only one can be situated on each network.
Station that carries out cyclic transmission of bit unit input/output signals with the master station.
A station that performs cyclic transmission for bit input/output signals and word input/output data. This station
responds to a transient transmission (request) from another station.
Time required for every station on the network to transmit data in order one time. The link scan time will vary
depending on the data quantity and transient transmission requests.
Station that carries out cyclic transmission and transient transmission with master station and other local
stations.
A virtual network that connects the Windows part and VxWorks part in a MELIPC.
Process that stops data linkage at data link abnormality.
Station that relays data links to other networks.
An abbreviation for a power supply module for Mitsubishi Electric Industrial PC, MI5A1P.
Process that restarts a data link when a faulty station returns to normal status.
An abbreviation for a main module for Mitsubishi Electric Industrial PC, MI5122.
