3.2.6 Fieldbus configuration
Before a slave can be connected (e .g. bus node CPX-FB23-24) to the CC-Link master, various configura-
tion settings must be made, e.g.:
– Number of connected slaves
– Number of stations to be c onnected to the system again during a scanning cycle
– Status if there is a CPU fault in the main co mputer
– Station data (settings of the slave):
– Station type ( CPX-FB23-24: Remote device station)
– CC-Link slave address (1 … 64)
– Function mo dule F24
– Protocol version CC-Link version 2.0 resp. 1.1 ( Note)
– Optimisation type: cycle time or station optimised
The configuration settings are saved in the master station buffer memory. The settings can e.g. be set
as follows ( in some cases dependent on the master):
– with the GX developer
– through manual programming using PLC code
General information on the field bus CC-Link is found in the documentation for your CC-
Link master and for the relevant control systems (e.g. from Mitsubishi).
An overview can be found under www.cc-link.org.
Note
In a configuration with 1-fold cycle setting ( Tab. 2.9) the bus node in the master must
be configured as CC-Link 1.1 slave.
