Remarks
• When installing multiple number of modules on a single PC, make them allocated so that
relay link area, register link area, and flag area may not overlap with each other.
• When installing multiple number of modules on a single PC, pay attention to the total
communication data volume and the number of bytes available for communication area.
• Though more than one JW-20CM can be mounted on single basic rack panel, they cannot
directly communicate with other stations beyond one network.
