Description
Device data can be read or written from an external device to a
module on the network where the Ethernet adapter module is
connected. Data also can be read or written from/to the Ethernet
adapter module.
Issuing a send request from the CPU module to the Ethernet adapter
module allows data to be sent to the external device.
Events such as link start instruction and read instruction can be
notified to an external device.
In addition, data can be simultaneously sent to all the external
devices on Ethernet where the Ethernet adapter module is also
connected (broadcast communications).
With this function, communications using the specified IP address
can be performed over CC-Link IE Field Network. For example, a
personal computer connected to the Ethernet part can communicate
with another personal computer connected to a Built-in Ethernet port
QCPU.
Two networks of CC-Link IE Field Network and Ethernet are not
required, resulting in reduced wiring cost.
The Ethernet adapter module can be also connected to MELSOFT
products or GOTs.
Description
Data can be periodically exchanged with the master station through
link devices (RX, RY, RWr, and RWw).
The devices or buffer memory of the Ethernet adapter module can be
directly accessed from the master or local station.
Requests from the master or local station to the Ethernet adapter
module are made with dedicated instructions.
Description
The values in the devices and buffer memory of the Ethernet adapter
module can be monitored.
Information such as the latest error that occurred in the Ethernet
adapter module and the status of the communications with an
external device can be checked.
