CHAPTER 3 – Communications
Setting Procedures
Specifying the PLC to Connect to via the PT
The procedures for connecting the CX-Programmer to a PLC via an NS-series PT are given below. Be sure that
normal communications are possible between the PT and PLC before performing any of these procedures.
Downloading Ladder Programs or Other Data to a PLC with an Ethernet Connection between
the Computer and PT and a 1:N NT Link Serial Connection between the PT and PLC

Note 3: If the CP1W-CIF41 is used, the PLC containing it cannot be used as a gateway PLC to cross
network layers.
Note 4: Use FINS/UDP for communications with the NS-series PT when using an EtherNet/IP Unit or
built-in EtherNet/IP port on the CPU Unit.
Note 5: An Option Board can be mounted only to a CPU Unit with 30 or 40 Points.
The CP1E-E@@D@-A cannot be connected via an NS-series PT because it has no built-in RS-
232C port and an Option Board cannot be mounted.
