Serial Communications Section 6-1
Direction of Data Transfer For example, if the number of link words is set to 10, the CJ1M CPU Unit
(master) will broadcast CIO 3100 to CIO 3109 from its I/O memory and to
CIO 0080 to CIO 0089 in the I/O memory of each FQM1 Controller (slaves).
Each FQM1 Controller will send CIO 0090 to CIO 0099 from its I/O memory to
consecutive sets of 10 words in the CJ1M CPU Unit.
Source Words and
Number of Link Words
The words that will be sent depend on the number of link words as shown in
the following table.
Note CJ1M CPU Unit I/O memory addresses are given in parentheses.
Procedure The Serial PLC Links operate according to the following settings in the PLC
Setup and System Setup.
CJ1M (Master) Settings
1,2,3... 1. Set the serial communications mode of the RS-232C communications port
to Serial PLC Links (Polling Unit).
2. Set the link method to the Polling Unit Link Method.
3. Set the number of link words (1 to 10).
4. Set the maximum unit number in the Serial PLC Links (0 to 7).
FQM1 (Slave) Settings
1,2,3... 1. Set the serial communications mode of the RS-232C communications port
to PC Link (Slave).
2. Set the unit number of the Serial PLC Link slave.
