Connecting to the RS-232C Port at the Host

Section 4-1

Using the NT Link (1:N) Method

The settings for SW1 and SW2 depend upon the usage of the peripheral port and RS-232C port.

Connecting PT to peripheral port

Connecting PT to built-in RS-232C port

(A device that requires non-standard communications settings is connected to the peripheral port.)

SW1: OFF

SW2: ON

Connecting PT to built-in RS-232C port

When using a CVM1/CV-series PLC, CPU Unit execution processing (execu- tion control 2) in the PLC Setup must be set to Simultaneous processing.

Compatible Host Units

The OMRON PLCs that can be connected using the NT link (1:N) method are the CS/CJ-series CPU Units and the C-series C200HX/HG/HE(-Z)E, CQM1H, and SRM1 only. With the CS/CJ-series PLCs, it is possible to connect a 1:N NT Link using a Serial Communications Board (CS Series only) or a Serial Communications Unit.
