Setting Data Links

Section 5-2

4.When using the Controller Link Support Software to set a CJ-series Con- troller Link Unit, use one of the following methods to set the type of PLC.

Set the type of PLC to “Others.”

Add the following information to the device information setting file (CLKTYPE.TXT) in the Controller Link Support Software to add the CJ-series PLC and then set the CJ-series PLC.

CJ1G-CPU44: Same settings as the CS1G-CPU44-E

CJ1G-CPU45: Same settings as the CS1G-CPU45-E

For details on editing device information setting files, refer to the Con- troller Link Support Software Operation Manual (W308).

Setting data link tables

A data link table is created for each node using the Controller Link Support Software. The data link tables contain all the settings required to create the data links.

Note 1. The following three methods can be used to start data links. (See p. 153.)

Using a software switch

Using the Controller Link Support Software or CX-Net (in CX-Program- mer)

Using an FINS command

2.To create data link tables using the Controller Link Support Software, the network must have been constructed correctly. Set routing tables at each node as required. See Applications Precautions on page xxii. for details.
