Note 1. For further details about the CX-Programmer, refer to the WS02-CXPC@- E-V@CX-Programmer Operation Manual.

2.Use version 1.54 or higher of CX-Net in version 2.04 or higher of the CX- Programmer for the CJ-series Controller Link Unit.

3.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 later.

1-3 Selection of Communications Functions

Select the data link function if alarm or status data (in bits) must be constantly shared between PLCs or between a PLC and an IBM PC/AT or compatible computer or if the present value or set value data (in words) must be con- stantly shared between PLCs or between a PLC and an IBM PC/AT or com- patible computer.

Select the message service function (SEND/RECV instructions or CMND instructions) if data (in words) must be sent (or received) from one PLC to
