Specifications and Configurations

Section 1-2

2.For automatic data link creation with 1:N allocations or when changing data link tables while the data link is active (CS1W-CLK21-V1 and CJ1W- CLK21-V1), use the CX-Net in CX-Programmer version 3.2 or higher.

Controller Link Support Software (Version 2.00)

Using an Independent Computer

IBM PC/AT or compatible

The Controller Link Support Software can be used to manually set data links, to set Controller Link parameters, and to monitor the Controller Link Network. The Controller Link Support Software is run on a personal computer con- nected to a C200HX/HG/HE, CVM1, or CV-series PLC or a personal com- puter in which a Controller Link Support Board has been mounted.

Setting the data link mode to “manual” (creating and storing data link tables).

Starting/stopping data links.

Reading (monitoring) network status.

Reading error logs.

Setting routing tables.

Testing the Network.

Changing network parameters.

Reading the network connection configuration data and status (in token- ring mode only).

A computer that is not part of the Network can be used to control the Control- ler Link Network.

Note 1. The Controller Link Support Software cannot be connected to a CS/CJ-se- ries PLC. It is possible to monitor and set a Controller Link Unit on a CS/ CJ-series via the network by connecting the computer running the Control- ler Link Support Software to a C200HX/HG/HE, CVM1, CV-series, or CQM1H-series PLC.

2.The Controller Link Support Software can be used as a part of the SYS- MAC Support Software.
