Glossary

The following terms are used in this manual and the EtherNet/IP setting tool.

Term

Description

Originator The side which opens the connection of the cyclic communication is called

originator, i.e. controllers such as PLC.

Target The side which the connection is opened is called target, such as PLC, I/O devices.

Scan List

Connection setting with targets registered in FP0H. Information required for the

communication with the targets and the device allocation of own unit are registered.

For FP0H, the connection with targets are established according to the scan list.

I/O map Information required for the transmission from the own unit (FP0H) to other PLCs

and the device allocation of the own unit are registered.

EDS file

(Electric data sheet)

EDS files are provided for each product by each vendor. This file contains the

information on the communication for registering targets in the scan list.

The EDS files of each target should be registered for constructing the scan list with

the setting tool.

Node no.

A node number is set when a target is registered in the scan list.

Numbers that do not overlap are allocated in the scan list as node numbers.

Node numbers are not used in the cyclic communication, however, as each target is

recognized by these numbers, they are used for monitoring the communication

state of each node or controlling the start/stop of the communication.

Connection setting The details of the connections with targets registered in the scan list are set.

Node name Arbitrary node names can be given.

Device name Device names of targets. The device name is registered in the EDS file.

Connection Name The type of the connection manager registered in the EDS file is selected by the

name. By selecting this, the application type (communication method) is changed.

Application Type

The communication method can be selected by the application type.

Three communication methods are available;

1: Exclusive Owner (Two-way communication)

2: Input Only

3: Listen Only

Although "Exclusive Owner" and "Input Only" are independent connections, "Listen

Only" can be connected only when either of the above connections is established,

and it will be automatically cut if the independent connection is disconnected.

Also, it will be reconnected automatically when the above independent connection

is reconnected.

When FP0H is used as a target, "Input Only" can be selected.

Compatibility Check

Set the operation method of "Compatibility Check" , which checks the information of

the connected target device against the revision of the EDS file.

Three verification methods are available. The default is "Follow Adapter(Target)

Rule".

1: Check

2: Not check

3: Follow Adapter(Target) Rule

Term Description

Communication Method

(Tag/Instance)

For connecting from an originator to target, there are two methods to specify the

device area of the target.

- by specifying numbers (Instance)

- by specifying symbols (Tag).

When setting connections, the methods available for each target are displayed.

For using the FP0H as a target, either method can be selected.

However, the selectable instance numbers for the instance method are 100 to 199.

Input Send Trigger

The transmission timing is selected from Cyclic or COS (Change of state).

However, COS depends on devices.

COS is basically a cyclic communication, however, it also performs transmission

when sent data changes.

The FP0H does not support COS.

COS Transmission

Disable Time

Transmission disable time (RPI of input information x 1/4) is displayed when "Input

Send Trigger" is set to "Change of State (COS)".

Even if the unit detects the change in data, it is not sent within the transmission

disable time.

Timeout Period

In the cyclic communication, transmission data is sent as UDP packet. The timeout is

judged on a receiver side.

The timeout period is selected from 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128, 256 and 512 times of RPI.

The timeout period should be 10 msec or more.

RPI can be specified for T>O direction and O>T direction separately, so each timeout

period may be different values.

Input Information (T>O) This is the setting for the transmission from a target to the FP0H (originator).

Output Information

(O>T) This is the setting for the transmission from the FP0H (originator) to a target.

RPI

(Requested Packet

Interval)

Set the transmission interval for the cyclic communication. Set a value within the

communication capacity of a target. The usable RPI range depends on devices.

For the FP0H, it is 1 ms to 10 s (by 0.5 ms).

Point to Point

(1:1 communication)

One to one communication is performed between an originator and a target.

Transmitted packets are received only by each other.

Other devices connected to the same HUB do not receive those transmission

packets.

Multicast

(Multicast

communication)

Transmission data is sent as a multicast packet. By connecting multiple originators to

one target, one multicast packet can be received by multiple originators.

(Note) Multicast packets are basically received by all devices connected to the same

HUB which includes the devices unrelated to the communication, and it leads to an

unnecessary communication load.

When using the multicast communication, set not to exceed 100% by the load factor

calculation of the setting tool.

TTL TTL (Time To Live) is used to set the hierarchies of the network in which transmission

packets can exist when sending multicast packets to other PLCs.

Instance ID/Tag name Set an instance ID or tag name according to the communication method of the

selected connection.

Data Size The data sizes of the originator and target for the cyclic communication must be the

same. When they do not match, the communication cannot be performed.

Parameter setting Data size, instance ID and other parameters that can be changed in the EDS file can

be changed.

PPS performance index

(Packet per sec) This is an index of sent/received packets processed in one second.

Glossary

Term

Description

Normal packet and

large packet

The packet whose size is within 510 bytes is called normal packet. The packet whose

size is 511 bytes to 1444 bytes is called larget packet.

The maximum communication performance varies according to the data size used for

communication.

Performance index of FP0H

For 510 bytes or less: Max. 5000 pps

For 511 bytes or more: Max. 2500 pps

Protocol used for

cyclic communication The cyclic communication is performed using UDP. The used port number is 2222.

Heartbeat

For "Input Only" or "Listen Only", a packet called heartbeat whose data size is zero is

sent from the originator (FP0H). For the RPI of the heartbeat, the value 16 times of the

RPI of transmitted data from a target is automatically applied.

The heartbeat is used for confirming the continuation of the connection on the target

side. It is used for detect the timeout.

Forward open This is a command for opening the connection of EtherNet/IP and sent using TCP. The

used port number is 44818.

Large forward open This is a command for opening the connection when sending/receiving data whose

size is larger than 511 bytes.

RUN/IDLE bit

Operation state flag (RUN/IDLE) sent by connected devices in cyclic communication.

RUN ：1

IDLE ：0

When the RUN/IDLE bit of the originator does not change to RUN, the target may not

operate properly. For details, refer to "5.2.3 RUN/IDLE Bit".

•Do not use "2222" and "44818" for the port numbers set to the connections

of Ethernet communication.
