4 SETTINGS AND PROCEDURES PRIOR TO OPERATION
(b)Do not use the above settings for the following cases, because linked operation cannot be performed.
1)When using the
2)When an external device is not connected to either of the interfaces.
3)When the bidirectional protocol is used for data communication.
4)When communicating data with an external device connected to two interfaces that are not interacting, using functions set in the communication protocol settings (MC protocol/non procedure protocol).
5)When communicating data using the modem function.
POINT
When two interfaces are in linked operation, the transmission time for one character becomes equal to the hardware gate off time of the Q series C24.
(c)The data flow in linked operation is as follows.
1)Two interfaces operate linked together using functions defined with the communication protocol setting on the CH2 side (MC protocol in the same format or a non procedure protocol) within the transmission specifications set in the respective transmission settings (specifications for CH1 and CH2 must be the same).
