3.3 Setting the Communication Manager

This section describes the software called the Communication Manager that is used to set the communication method
for engineering communication between the personal computer running the MPE720 and the MP2000 Series Machine
Controller.
Use a Communication Module other than the 262IF-01 Module for communication between the Machine Controller
and the personal computer running the MPE720 and set an appropriate communication method depending on the Mod-
ule used.
Set the communication conditions with the Communication Manager after the MPE720 Programming Device has been
installed. Once they have been set, it is unnecessary to set from the next startup except when other conditions are to be
added.
