The following are the precautions when replacing the QnACPU MELSECNET/10
network system with the QCPU MELSECNET/H network system:
(1) Switch settings of the network module
The MELSECNET/H network module does not have a network number setting
switch, a group number setting switch and a condition setting switch (default
parameter setting). Thus, these switches must be set with the network
parameters.
(2) Correcting the network parameters
The corrections as described in item (1) above are required for the network
parameters.
In particular, when the default parameter is set in SW3 of the network module,
there will be no parameter information about the network after converting from a
QnA to a Q with GX Developer.
When the default parameter is used, make sure to set the network parameters
with GX Developer after the conversion.
(3) Correcting the sequence programs
It is not necessary to fix the sequence programs, such as an interlock program
that uses a link special relay (SB) or a link special register (SW) and a program
for accessing other stations using the data link instructions.
• The operations of the link special relays and link special registers used in the
MELSECNET/10 network are the same as those in the MELSECNET/H.
• The interlock link special relay is required to use data link instruction in the
MELSECNET/10 network, but it is not required for the MELSECNET/H
network. However, the sequence program will operate normally even if the
interlock link special relay remains in the sequence program after conversion.
(4) Distance between optical fiber cable stations
The distance between stations will become shorter when overwriting network
systems at a communication speed of 25Mbps depending on the optical fiber
cable in use.
In this event, set the communication speed to 10Mbps, or rewire the system with
different optical fiber cables.
