3.3 CC-Link System Access Range for Monitoring

When using Bus connection/CPU direct connection/computer link connection

Only connected stations can be monitored.

When using CC-Link connection (intelligent device station)

(1)Access range

The master station and local station can be monitored.

Monitoring is available only when the CC-Link communication module is the GT15-J61BT13.

All devices RX, RY, RWw and RWr that are allocated to the master station by the CC-Link parameter setting can be monitored.

When the monitor target is the multi-PLC system, CPU No. 1 to No. 4 can be monitored.

The device range of RX, RY, RWw, RWr to be allocated to the GOT differs according to the setting of the number of CC-Link communication units (one station/four station) occupied.

For details on the number of CC-Link stations occupied, refer to the following manual . User's manual of the CC-Link master unit to be connected

(2)Setting device name and device number

(a)Monitoring devices RX, RY, RWw and RWr that are allocated to the master station by CC-Link parameter setting

Use the following device names.

For devices RX, RY, RWw and RWr, designate the addresses allocated by station number setting.
