4.7 Communication via Network
The communication between the personal computer and the Motion CPU is possible
via Q series Network module (MELSECNET/10(H), Ethernet, CC-Link and etc.) in the
Motion CPU (Q173DCPU/Q172DCPU).
Refer to the PLC manuals for the specifications of each network modules of
MELSECNET/10(H), Ethernet, CC-Link and Serial communication, the handling
method.
4.7.1 Specifications of the communications via network
(1) Communications via network enables using MT Developer in the Motion CPU.
(2) Access range of the communications via network of the Motion CPU is an access
range equivalent to QnUD(H)CPU. (Refer to Section "4.7.2 Access range of the
communications via network".)
(3) By setting the routing parameter to the control CPU of the network module and the
CPU which connected the peripheral devices in the network by
MELSECNET/10(H) and Ethernet, it is possible to relay to 8 network points and
communicate.
(4) Because the Motion CPU cannot become the control CPU of the network module,
there is not setting item of the network module and network parameter.
However, when connecting with the CPU on the other network from the peripheral
device which connected the Motion CPU, it needs to the setting of the routing
parameter.
(5) It can operate by remote control the monitor or program editing of the Motion CPU
via the intranet using the Ethernet module.
