8-2 Controller Selection (when using multiple units)
In the case of multiple units connected serially via the communication line, the axis selection screen
will be displayed. For a single unit, since there is no need to select the axis, the first screen below will
not appear (refer to Section 8.3 entitled Operational Mode Selection of this manual). The content
explained here will be based on operation of the selected axis (controller). In addition, the controller can
connect up to 16 units. However, it is impossible to link a group of PCON, ACON, SCON, ERC2
controllers with RCP, RCS, E-Con, RCP2 and ERC controllers for use.
Display a controller to be used, and further press the Return key. The selection is confirmed, and
“8.3 Operation Mode Selection” will appear on the screen.
