POINT

When connecting to motion controller CPU (Q Series)

In the [Base Setting] on MT Developer, set "10" to the number of slots for the extension base used for GOT connection.

Example: When setting "2" to Stage No. and "0" to Slot No. in the communication interface settings, set "10" to [2nd Stage].

HINT

Setting unused I/O slots to empty (0 points) (only when connecting to QCPU (Q mode))

Setting unused I/O slots as empty slots (0 points) from "PC parameters" "I/O assignments" of GX Developer

allows you to use I/O numbers of "16 points number of empty slots" for other purposes.

For details on I/O assignment settings, refer to the following manual:

QnU User's Manual (Function Explanation, Program Fundamentals)

Qn(H)/QnPH/QnPRHCPU User's Manual (Function Explanation, Program Fundamentals)

Example: I/O assignment (when 16 points are assigned to each of all modules installed with the PLC CPU)
