Adding Nodes Using a Repeater Unit

Section 10-1

If automatic settings are used, make sure that the appropriate DM Area parameters have been set.

Check that the new data transmission that will be performed due to the new nodes has been considered in the user program for the existing network before adding the nodes. If the ladder program is not suitable, the system may not operate properly.

Make sure that the node addresses of the new nodes are not already being used by other nodes in the same network. If the same node address is used by more than one node, a node duplication error will be detected when the node is added, communications will stop, and the node with the same address will not be able to the join the network. Data may also be unexpectedly received from the incorrectly set node. To restore a Controller Link Unit with a duplicated address, reset the node address correctly, then turn ON the power to the corresponding PLCs again, or restart the Controller Link Units.

Always set the baud rate of the new nodes and the Repeater Unit to the same baud rate used for the existing network. If a different baud rate is set when adding a new node, the communications for the whole network including the existing network will be unstable and communications errors will occur.

Set the terminating resistance of the new nodes to the Repeater Unit as shown in the following diagram. If terminating resistance is set incorrectly, communications errors may occur.
