6.6.5 Configuration of slave station
(1) In case of EH-CPU as slave station
Configure port 1 of EH-CPU as RS-422 transmission procedure 2 with station number.
Step 1 : Set Dip Sw of EH-CPU at the bottom according to transmission speed of EH-SIO.
Step 2 : Set parameter in special internal output WRF037 according to the table 6.27.
Table 6.27 Configuration of EH-CPU communication port
Indication after power up
Built-in termination register
*2
is disabled
Built-in termination register
*2
is enabled
「**」 means the station number. Setting range is from 00 to 31, and set by BCD. If the setting value is out of range, the CPU
module operates as the station number 31 though displays number keeps setting value.
*1 : Bit11 and bit10 of WRF037 shows the current interface. Therefore, depending on the previous setting, the system value
may be displayed in different values. As to the details of these bits, please refer to the EH-CPU application manual.
*2 : EH-CPU516/548 has built-in termination register. If built-in termination register is enabled, it is no need to put external
termination register.
« Note »
CPU module which has not RS-422 interface and transmission procedure 2 can’t be used as slave station.
Implement wiring according to RS-422 interface.
It is possible to use RS-485 instead of RS-422, but the protocol error (error code 6A) may be detected during the
communication. (The operation will be continued even if this error code is displayed.)
(2) In case of MICRO-EH as slave station
Configure port2 of MICRO-EH as transmission procedure 2 with station number.
Set the parameter in special internal output WRF03D referring table 6.28.
Figure 6.70 Special internal output of port2 configuration
Table 6.28 Configuration of EH-CPU communication port
After setting, system set zero.
Request change of setting
When requesting change of setting, one is set
« Note »
MICRO-EH (10 points and 14 points) can’t be used as slave station because it has not RS-422 port.
Implement wiring according to RS-422 interface.
