Number Of Link Points; General-Purpose Ethernet Communication Configuration - Mitsubishi Electric MELSEC iQ-F Series User Manual

Number of link points

The number of link points per remote station is 64 points for RX/RY and 32 points for RWr/RWw. ( Page 18 Performance
Specifications)
However, by changing the number of occupied stations, RX/RY can be set to a maximum of 256 points in increments of 64
points and RWr/RWw can be set to a maximum of 128 points in increments of 32 points. For details on the number of
occupied stations (whether or not the number can be changed), refer to the manual for the remote station used.
If the number of link points for the remote station is changed, the assignment range and station number are changed.
(1) Master station
(2) Remote station 1: 1 station occupied
(3) Remote station 2: 2 stations occupied
(4) Remote station 3: 4 stations occupied
The following table lists the number of link points.
Remote Number of occupied
station stations
1 1 occupied station
2 2 occupied stations
3 4 occupied stations
Setting the number of link points for a remote station to 2 stations occupied means that two remote stations
are connected. Thus, if the number of link points is increased, the number of connectable remote stations per
network is decreased.
