Connecting to the Host’s RS-422A/485 Port

Section 5-2

Setting the Front Switches

I/O port selector switch

RS-232C

RS-422A

Host link communications method selection (selector switch)

Set this to RS-422A.

Communications type setting (DIP SW3) Set SW3 to OFF.

(for host link communications)

Host link default value settings

(DIP SW4)

To effect the existing DIP switch settings, set SW4 to ON.

To effect the values set in the PLC Setup, set SW4 to OFF.

Note

For CPU Units manufactured before or during June 1995 (lot No. @@65), the existing DIP switch settings differ from the PLC Setup default values as follows.

-Existing DIP switch settings:

2,400 bps, 1 stop bit, even parity, 7 bit data length

-PLC Setup default values:

9,600 bps, 2 stop bits, even parity, 7 bit data length

For CPU Units manufactured from July 1995 onward (lot No. @@75), the stipulated values in the DIP switch settings also are 9600 bps and 2 stop bits

Terminator setting (DIP SW6) Set this switch to ON.

(Set terminator ON.)

C200HX/HG/HE(-Z)E, CPM1, CPM2A, CPM2C, CQM1H, or SRM1

The connection method depends upon the model of PLC being used, as shown in the following table.

PLC model

Connection method

 

 

C200HX/HG/HE(-Z)E

Connect to the RS-422A port (port A) on a Communications

 

Board.

 

 

CQM1H

Connect to the RS-422A port (port 2) on a Serial Communi-

 

cations Board.

 

 

CPM1

Connect to the peripheral port through a CPM1-CIF11 RS-

 

422A Adapter.

 

 

CPM2A, SRM1

Connect to the peripheral port through a CPM1-CIF11 RS-

 

422A Adapter.

 

 

CPM2C

Connect to the peripheral port (on a CPM2C-CN111 or

 

CS1W-CN114 Connecting Cable) through a CPM1-CIF11

 

RS-422A Adapter.

 

(The CPM2C-CN111 splits the Unit’s Communications Port

 

into a RS-232C port and a peripheral port.)

 

 

Reference: • There are no Communications Boards for the C200HX/HG/HE(-Z)E in which port B is the RS-422A port.

There are no Serial Communications Boards for the CQM1H in which port 1 is the RS-422A port.
