Chapter8 Communication Function
8.1.7 1:1 Built-in communication between K7's
1) Introduction
1:1 built-in communication between K7's is that which constitutes a built-in communication system with
the method of 1(master) : 1(slave). Setting Base parameter and communication parameter in KGLWIN can
easily constitute this system. Communication protocol currently applied is the same with Cnet I/F used for
Kseries. Main functions are following.
• It can organize device area into 64 data access blocks by WORD unit, and set a communication time-out
limit for each block.
• It can reestablish flag in relation with error codes and slave PLC operating mode according to parameter
setting.
• It can reset flag related with error codes and sending/receiving error frequency of each parameter.
• It monitors communication status, using monitoring function of KGLWIN.
