4.4 Address Configuration
The RCON address configuration is the same for all driver units regardless of field network type.
The addresses occupied by the network consist of the fixed domains of 8 words, data domains
flexible to the operation mode and number of axes and data domains for the EC connection unit.
Each operation mode and occupied data region is as follows.
Direct numerical control mode, simple direct mode and positioner 1~3 and 5 modes can be
mixed for use and the model for each axis can be selected arbitrarily.
Selection of the operation mode is not available in the EC connection unit.
