Note: The format abb and a.bb the a represents the address, and bb represents two digits bits. For
example: for format abb, you must type at least one digit for the address and the two last digits
represents the bits, i.e. 000 represents in address 0 bit 00; for format a.bb, you must type the address,
then the (. ), and after that two digits to represents the bits, i.e. DM0. 00 represents address 0 bit 00.
Note: For DMaaaa, registers 9000-9827 are special purpose.
CONFIGURATION
Keyence KV-10R - Setup the Quick Panel to RS232C, 9600 baud, 8 data bits, even parity, 1 stop bit,
and none handshake. Connect the cable between the I/O port on the Quick Panel and the programming
port on the PLC.
Keyence KV-L2 - Setup the Quick Panel to RS232C, 9600 baud, 8 data bits, even parity, 1 stop bit,
and none handshake. Connect the cable between the I/O port on the Quick Panel and Port 1 on the
PLC. Verify the following settings for the switches in one side of the PLC: Interface Switch, select
232C. For Terminator Switch, select OFF. For Station No. Switch, select 0. For Set A Switches:
Switches 2 and 4 - ON, Switches 1 and 3 - OFF. For Set B Switches: Switches 3, 4, 5 and 6 - ON,
Switches 1, 2, 7 and 8 - OFF.
