Omron CS1W-CLK12-V1 Operation Manual page 10

About this Manual:
This manual describes the installation, setup, and operation of the CS1W-CLK12, CVM1-CLK12,
CS1W-CLK52, and CVM1-CLK52 Optical Ring Controller Link Units for CS-series, CVM1, and CV-
series PLCs and includes the sections described below. The Controller Link Units are used to connect
these PLCs to an Optical Ring Controller Link Network. The following three manuals are related to
application of the Controller Link Network.

Please read this manual and related manuals carefully and be sure you understand the information
provided before attempting to install and operate a Controller Link Unit.
Precautions provides general precautions for using the Controller Link Units and related devices.
Section 1 provides basic information on Controller Link Networks, and gives the reader an overview of
what Controller Link Networks can do and how best to use them.
Section 2 describes the basic procedures for using the Controller Link Unit. The settings required for
each of the functions are also explained briefly. For more details, refer to the subsequent sections on
individual functions.
Section 3 explains how to install a Controller Link Unit onto a CPU Backplane and how to wire the
Controller Link Network.
Section 4 describes the settings required for starting communications. These basic settings are
required both for data links and the message service. Carry out the settings described here before
turning ON power to the Controller Link Unit.
Section 5 describes how to use data links in a Controller Link Network. Refer to Section 2 Basic Pro-
cedures for an outline of data link application.
Section 6 explains how to use the message service provided by a Controller Link Unit. It also explains
the FINS commands and responses supported by Controller Link Units and those supported by CS-
series, CVM1 and CV-series PLCs.
Section 7 describes the methods used to connect multiple networks through CS-series, CVM1, and
CV-series PLCs. The section also describes remote programming and monitoring with Programming
Devices.
Section 8 describes the duplex function for Communications Units. It also provides setting methods
using the CX-Programmer and precautions for using Communications Units in duplex operation. Read
this section thoroughly and be sure that you understand the contents before using Communications
Units in duplex operation.
Section 9 explains details on Controller Link Network communications. Refer to this section for net-
work communications that require accurate communications timing.
Section 10 provides information on troubleshooting errors that occur during Controller Link Unit oper-
ation, as well as daily inspection, cleaning, and other maintenance procedures.
Appendix A provides a list of standard OMRON products related to Controller Link Networks,
Appendix B provides easy reference to the CPU Unit memory areas related to Controller Link Net-
works, Appendix C provides information on CS-series Optical Bus Controller Link Units
(production to be discontinued), and Appendix D provides information on handling Optical Fiber
Cables.
