6-1-4 Serial PLC Links

Overview	The FQM1 can be connected to a Serial PLC Link by linking to a Serial PLC
	Master. (It cannot be connected by the Complete Link Method.) Program-free
	data exchange can be achieved between the master and slave by connecting
	a CJ1M CPU Unit as the master and the FQM1 as the slave. The FQM1 con-
	nection is made to the RS-232C port on the Coordinator Module.
	CIO 0080 to CIO 0099 in the Serial PLC Link Bit Area in the Coordinator Mod-
	ule are shared with the CJ1M master as shown below.
	CIO 0080 to CIO 0089: CJ1M master to FQM1 slave
	CIO 0090 to CIO 0099: FQM1 slave to CJ1M maser

Note Use a CJ1W-CIF11 RS-232C to RS-422A/485 Conversion Adapter when con- necting more than one FQM1 to the same CJ1M CPU Unit (1:N, where N = 8 max.).

Up to 10 words can be sent by the CJM1 and FQM1. Fewer words can be sent by setting the number of link words, but the number of words will be the same for both the CJM1 and FQM1.
