4.5MELSECNET/H and MELSECNET/10 Connections (Network Systems)

This section explains the MELSECNET/H and MELSECNET/10 connections (network systems) that connect the GOT to the MELSECNET/H and MELSECNET/10 network system.

The following provides an example of connecting the GOT set as a normal station to the MELSECNET/ H network system.

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

When system switching occurs, the network module station No. 2 changes from the normal station to the sub control station and takes over the control of the MELSECNET/H network system.

Since the GOT monitors the control system, the monitoring target is automatically changed to the network module station No. 2.

POINT

To monitor the control system without Q redundant setting

When system switching occurs, the network module station No. 2 changes from the normal station to the sub control station and takes over the control of the MELSECNET/H network system.

Since the GOT monitors the station of the specified station number, the monitoring target cannot be changed to the station No. 2 in response to the system switching.

As a countermeasure, create a screen to monitor the PLC CPU of the control system by switching the station numbers between System A and System B using the script function.
