OTHER MODE
8.7 DATA THROUGH
This function involves connection of a personal computer running the programmable controller
program creation software (FX-PCS-KITIAT or MEDOC) to a programmable controller via the FX-
4ODU-E and allows transfer and monitoring of programmable controller programs, and other com-
munication between the personal computer and programmable controller.
While the DATA THROUGH function is in force, communication between the FX-40DU-E and the
programmable controller is suspended. This means that if the DATA THROUGH function is used while
sampling is in progress, sampling is stopped (although the sampled data is preserved).
