PLC Link Service in Common Network
- CIMON (Unlicensed)
This service is to exchange high baud rate and large capacity data between CIMON PLCs. An Ethernet card is used.
PLC Link, a communication method between CIMON PLC communication modules, is used to exchange data and information with the other party at a certain time periodically. Users can assign the Sending/Receiving Data Size, the Interval and the Device in the Parameter of the CICON to exchange data. This PLC Link service regards network itself as important.
Features :
The total of 64 blocks, 32 Sending blocks and 32 Receiving blocks each, can be set up for each communication module.
Link Points
Max. Comm. Points | Max. Sending Points | Max. Block Points | Max. Points Per Block |
4,096 | 2,048 | 64(0~63) | 64 |
64-word data can be sent for each block.
Users can use the CICON to set up a peculiar receiving interval. The receiving interval can be set up in the range from 50ms to 3sec.
Users can use the CICON to set up a specific device and data size for sending/receiving data.
Users refer to User Data Memory Map in the CIOCN to set up the IP of a corresponding station.
