Administrator mode allows the user to configure the wireless units. Wireless Base /
Remote become settable.
A broken wire to the input or output equipment has been detected by the diagnostic
function.
Open network developed by Mitsubishi Electric Corporation. Abbreviation of Control &
Communication Link.
A protocol that automatically allocates information, necessary to be registered to use
the network, such as an IP address, to individual devices connected to the TCP/IP
network.
A dummy Remote can be used to reserve a dummy area within the I/O map. A
Wireless Remote can then be registered to the dummy area at a later time, without
having to change the I/O map.
Function to save the configured values of a wireless unit by exporting them to a PC.
Network protocol to establish digital communication between an automated industrial
system such as with measurement equipment or manipulation equipment and a PLC.
Communication system that can send and receive data at the same time bi-
directionally.
Communication method that can send and receive data reciprocally in bi-directional
communication.
Function to reconfigure a wireless unit by importing values stored on a PC.
Application used to directly set and monitor the wireless unit parameters via an NFC
reader / writer.
Memory area reserved for the I/O data and diagnostic information of the wireless
system.
A 32-bit digit sequence which is assigned to identify devices which are connected to
the network.
A unique number assigned to all devices connected to an EtherNet network.
A branching object. An object providing convergence.
A module consists of a Wireless Base / Wireless Remote combined with I/O units and
valve manifolds.
Mode which possesses the privileges to monitor the I/O Configurator (NFC version).
Wireless Base / Remote settings can be monitored but setting cannot be performed.
Abbreviation of Near Field Communication. A non-contact short distance wireless
communication used for configuration of the wireless units. The I/O Configurator (NFC
version) can directly command the Wireless Base / Remote through an NFC reader /
writer.
Number of points which can receive information from input equipment such as a
sensor or switch.
Number of points which can operate output equipment such as a valve, lamp or motor
starter.
