4.1.3Ethernet connection (Connection to Ethernet module mounted on remote I/O station)

This section explains the Ethernet connection for connecting the GOT to the Ethernet module mounted on the remote I/ O station of the MELSECNET/H network system.

The following shows an example of connecting the GOT to the Ethernet module mounted on the I/O station of the MELESCNET/H network system.

GOT

(1)Connection method

Connect the GOT to the Ethernet module (QJ71E71-100, QJ71E71-B5, QJ71E71-B2, QJ71E71) mounted on the remote I/O station of the MELSECNET/H network system.

(3)Monitoring target change when system switching occurs in a redundant system

When the system switching occurs, the multiplexed remote sub master station switched to the control system takes over the master operation of MELSECNET/H.

Since the GOT monitors the master station, the monitoring target is automatically changed to the PLC CPU that is operating as the master.
