Interconnecting Different Types of Networks

Note
152
Network interconnection enables commands and responses for the message
service to be sent and received across multiple networks. The four networks
listed below can be interconnected to achieve this.
FA Networks
• SYSMAC NET Link Networks
• SYSMAC LINK Networks
• Controller Link Networks
OA Network
• Ethernet Networks
Controller Link Networks can be connected through a CS-series, CVM1, or
CV-series PLC.
Controller Link Network
(Token-bus)
CS-series, CVM1,
C200HX/HG/HE, or
CV-series PLC (See note 1.)
Note 1. Only the token-bus mode can be used with the C200HX/HG/HE Se-
ries.
2. A data bridge is created between Controller Link Units
mounted on the same CS-series, CVM1, or CV-series PLC.
A CS-series, CVM1, or CV-series PLC can be used to connect a Controller
Link Network with an Ethernet, SYSMAC NET, or SYSMAC LINK Network.
Controller Link Network
(Token-ring)
CS-series, CVM1, or
CV-series PLC
Note A data and communications protocol gateway is created between
a Controller Link Unit and an Ethernet, SYSMAC NET, or SYS-
MAC LINK Unit mounted to the same CVM1, CV-series PLC.
1. A bridge is used between Communications Units to connect the same type
of networks.
Controller Link Network
(Token-ring)
CS-series, CVM1, or
CV-series PLC (See note 2.)
Ethernet Network
CS-series, CVM1, or
CV-series PLC (See note.)
