10.6 Cscape Programming via Serial Port

The EXL10 OCS MJ1 and MJ3 serial ports support CsCAN Programming Protocol. If a PC COM port is
connected to the EXL10 OCS MJ1 or MJ3 serial port, Cscape can access the EXL10 OCS for programming
and monitoring. Programming can also be done via the CAN port, USB A port or Ethernet.

10.7 Ladder-Controlled Serial Communication

Using Serial Communication function blocks, MJ1, MJ2, and MJ3 serial ports support Generic Modbus
Master and Modbus Slave Protocols. In addition, external modems can be connected and accessed using
Init, Dial and Answer Modem function blocks.

10.8 Configuration via Mini-B USB

It is possible to load the program and monitor data via the Mini-B USB. To load via Mini-B USB, configure
the communications port in Cscape as follows:
