Resuming Command Transmission

You can use the front panel keys to resume command transmission to a slave device to
which communication is stopped (red status lamp).

1.

Using the up and down arrow keys, select the command corresponding to the

slave device to which transmission will be resumed. The message “Push [right
arrow] key to refresh” appears.

2.

Press the right arrow key. The FX starts command transmission to the specified

slave.

Data When Communication Is Stopped and during Connection Retrials

For Modbus master, the communication input data is held at the previous values while
the command is being retried.
If the command transmission stops such as due to a connection drop, the status turns
red, and the communication input data will be error data. On communication channels,
“+OVER” or –OVER is displayed according to the FX settings.

Data Dropout

Data drop occurs when the commands from 1 to 16 do not complete within the read
cycle (see appendix 1). When a data dropout occurs, the communication input data is
held at the previous value. A message indicating the data dropout is also displayed on
the Modbus status display. If this happens, take measures such as making the read cycle
longer or reducing the number of commands. Confirm that no data dropout occurs on the
modbus status log screen.
