1.1 Communication Ports of CPU Unit

1.1.1 Types and Purposes of Communication Ports

Communication Port of CPU Unit

(In the above figure, a communication cassette (Ethernet type) is attached to the COM.1 and

COM.2 ports.)

Functions of Ports

(1) COM.1 and COM.2 ports

Attach a separately sold communication cassette to use these ports.

(2) COM.0 port, GT power supply terminals

This is an RS-232C port that is equipped to a standard model of CPU unit. It is equipped with

power supply terminals (5V DC and 24V DC) to which a GT series display can be connected.

(3) LAN port

This is equipped to a standard model of CPU unit. This is used for connection to Ethernet.

(4) USB port

This is equipped to a standard model of CPU unit. This is used for connecting tool software.

REFERENCE

See the "FP7 CPU unit User's manual (LAN port communication)" for the

detailed information of communication method via built-in LAN port in the

CPU unit. There is the deference of the usage between the Communication

cassette(Ethernet type) AFP7CCET1 and built-in LAN port.

Functions of LED lamps

(1) LINK

Turns ON when the connection is connected between the communication cassette AFP7

CCET1 and external equipment.

(2) ACK

Flashes when some communication is in progress with a connected device (e.g.

sending/receiving a command or response).

(Note)：MEWTOCOL7-COM do not support Master communication function.

User connection

It can be used for data communication between external Ethernet equipment connected on

LAN to open virtual connection via communication cassette AFP7CCET1.

Any one of the following condition can be used, MEWTOCOL master communication *1

connection, MEWTOCOL slave communication *3 connection or General Communication*1

connection

Parameters are set using the software FPWIN GR7 and Configurator WD.

System connection

It can be used to connect tool software via communication cassette AFP7CCET1.

Only 1 connection is available.

COM.2 is allocated and communication conditions are fixed.

Parameters are set using the software Configurator WD.

1.2.2 Restrictions

Behavior after the power has been turned on

It takes approx. 5 seconds to Initialize communication cassette AFP7CCET1, after the power

has been turned on. Data transfer cannot be executed during initialzaition process. Please

program to start communication, after the connection flag turns ON.

Restriction of broadcast communication

Broadcast communication do not support communication via router, because generally a

router do not forward broadcast packets.

Broadcast communication put a load on all other equipment on the network. Please evaruate

the effects on other equipment enough, before a broadcast communication executed.

Restriction to connect tool software communication

Althogh there is no limitation of connection, if you selecte "UDP" as a protocol mode, but

FPWIN GR7 do not support UDP communication.
