Changes from Previous Products

 

 

 

There are differences between Host Link Systems created using the CQM1H-

 

 

series Serial Communications Boards in comparison to Host Link Systems

 

 

created with Host Link Units and CPU Units in other PC product series. These

 

 

differences are described in this section.

Take the following differences into consideration when changing from an exist-

 

 

ing Host Link System to one using an RS-232C port on a CQM1H-series CPU

 

 

Unit or Serial Communications Boards.
