PC” will be displayed.
The Backup Unit Menu will be displayed.
2. Select “L: Computer → Unit” from the menu.

5-11-3 Initializing Network Parameters — C: Initialize NetworkParameters
“C: Initialize Network parameters” is used to initialize the network parameters for
the Controller Link Unit installed in the PC connected to the Controller Link Sup-
port Software or for the Controller Link Support Board installed in the computer
on which the Controller Link Support Software is running.
Use this function when the Controller Link Network fails to start.
Execute this function for the Controller Link Units or Controller Link Support
Boards that have been set as polling nodes.
Initializing the network parameters returns the settings to the following defaults.
Parameters Default
Max node address 62 (see note 1)
# of Event-frames per comm cycle 35
# of Polled nodes per comm cycle 4
Note 1) The default setting for the maximum node address for Controller Link Units
other than Optical Ring type Controller Link Units is 32.
2) Even if the network parameters are initialized, the current parameter set-
tings will not be changed during the operation.
3) If the Controller Link Support Software is connected to a C200HX/HG/HE
PC, the Unit specified in “PC interface” of the System Setup Menu will be
initialized.
1, 2, 3... 1. Select “C: Initialize Network parameters” from the Maintenance Menu.
