Special Internal Relays for Data Link Communication
Special internal relays M8005 through M8007 and M8080 through M8117 are assigned for the data link communication.
M8005 Data Link Communication Error
When an error occurs during communication in the data link system, M8005 turns on. The M8005 status is maintained when the
error is cleared and remains on until M8005 is reset using WindLDR or until the CPU is turned off. The cause of the data link
communication error can be checked using
Online > Monitor > Monitor, followed by Online > Status > Error Status: Details.
See "Data Link Communication Error Code" on page 7-4.
When performing communication on port 2 or port 3, this function is disabled.
M8006 Data Link Communication Prohibit Flag (Master Station)
When M8006 at the master station is turned on in the data link system, data link communication is stopped. When M8006 is
turned off, data link communication resumes. The M8006 status is maintained when the CPU is turned off and remains on until
M8006 is reset using WindLDR.
When M8006 is on at the master station, M8007 is turned on at slave stations in the data link system.
M8007Data Link Communication Initialize Flag (Master Station)
Data Link Communication Stop Flag (Slave Station)
M8007 has a different function at the master or slave station of the data link communication system.
Master station: Data link communication initialize flag
When M8007 at the master station is turned on during operation, the link configuration is checked to initialize the data link
system. When a slave station is powered up after the master station, turn M8007 on to initialize the data link system. After a
data link system setup is changed, M8007 must also be turned on to ensure correct communication.
Slave station: Data link communication stop flag
When a slave station does not receive communication data from the master station for 10 seconds or more in the data link
system, M8007 turns on. When a slave station does not receive data in 10 seconds after initializing the data link system, M8007
also turns on at the slave station. When the slave station receives correct communication data, M8007 turns off.
M8080-M8116 Slave Station Communication Completion Relay (Master Station)
Special internal relays M8080 through M8116 are used to indicate the completion of data refresh. When data link communication
with a slave station is complete, a special internal relay assigned for the slave station is turned on for one scan time at the master
station.
M8080 Communication Completion Relay (Slave Station)
When data link communication with a master station is complete, special internal relay M8080 at the slave station is turned on for
one scan time.
M8117 All Slave Station Communication Completion Relay
When data link communication with all slave stations is complete, special internal relay M8117 at the master station is turned on
for one scan time. M8117 at slave stations does not go on.
