Note Either one of the following two serial communications modes can be used

when connecting the CX-Programmer to the FQM1.

Serial

Features

communications

mode

Peripheral bus

Supports high-speed communications, so this communications

(Tool bus)

mode is normally used to connect to the CX-Programmer.

• Supports only a 1:1 connection.

• When the FQM1 is connected, the CX-Programmer can recog-

nize the baud rate and make the connection automatically.

Host link (SYS-

This communications mode is generally used to connect to a

MAC WAY)

host computer. Both 1:1 and 1:N connections are supported.

• Host link communications are relatively slow compared to the

peripheral bus mode.

• The Host Link mode supports connections through modems or

optical adapters, long-distance connections using RS-422A or

RS-485 communications, and 1:N connections.
