KP can, not only communicate with the PC but also can digitally communicate with KP → DB
device (Between our company's controller-DB). It is called "Communication transmission"
"Communication remote".
If this function is used, DBs on multiple machines operate with the same condition, consider KP as
master device which is set in communication transmission and DB as slave device which is set in
communication remote Maximum 31 slave device SVs can be set using communication. It can be
change to KP (master device) doing communication transmission or to communication remote DB
(slave device) receiving it, by key settings of device itself.
