Mitsubishi CC-Link

The Mitsubishi CC-Link communication interface allows slave connection to
an industrial Mitsubishi CC-Link network. FEC has a partner license with
Mitsubishi for the AFC1500 system for connection on the CC-Link network.
Mitsubishi CC-Link allows industrial devices to be controlled over an open
network architecture enabling device connection at various locations in the
field. This “Fieldbus” technology reduces hardwiring/cabling & provides ease
of installation. It can interface to many devices such as limit switches,
sensors, directional valves, motor starters, bar code readers, process sensors,
frequency drives, etc. The network can have up to 64 stations. Its maximum
communication baud rate is 10M baud and it’s minimum baud rate is 156K
baud.
Station addressing is selectable using the Station selection switch as well as
the number of occupied (32bit) stations using another selection DIP switch.
Baud rate is DIP switch selectable. Module & Network status LED’s provide
diagnostics. Maximum I/O data is 128 inputs & 128 outputs.

NOTE: The FEC CC-Link module is configured as a “Remote Device
Station
” when setting up the parameters in the PLC program.
