This document describes the standard specifications of the CC-Link I/F that links a PLC and F372A/ F377A. By using the CC-Link I/F, the F372A/F377A can be controlled directly from the PLC, so that wiring can be substantially reduced. Readers this document should have basic knowledge of the programming of the PLC and basic knowledge of the CC-Link I/F.
1.Appearance Descriptions Appearance Descriptions ■F372A/F377A with CC-Link I/F Name of Each Part ■CC-Link I/F Status LED Displays the status of communication. Status LED (Refer to "Status LED" on Page3.) Communication connector Connector for CC-Link interface. Communication connector (Refer to "Communication Connector" on Page2.)
4.Communication Connector Measurement work selection: Select the method of specifying measurement work. Control input selection: Select the method of specifying control (SECTION signal, T/H signal, GRAPH TRIG signal) input. Setting range: Communication Specifying by external input is disabled, and specifying by CC-Link is enabled. External input Specifying by CC-Link is disabled, and specifying by external input is enabled.
F372A/F377A enables to change the numbers of occupied stations by its setting. Be careful the assignment of station number, double used station number is not available for PLC. The address of remote (F372A/F377A) will be changed in accordance with the assignment of station number.
