7. Move the cursor to the B5 block and then press O. IDEC SmartRelay shows the following
display:
ou can see that there is a network digital input NI1 connected at the first input of B5.
The following views are examples of network digital and analog outputs in IDEC SmartRelay:
Available network input/output blocks in indLGC
The following network I/O blocks are available for you to create your circuit program in
indLGC:
Network digital inputs: NI1 to NI64
Network analog inputs: NAI1 to NAI32
Network digital outputs: N1 to N64
Network analog outputs: NA1 to NA16
3.8.5 Changing IDEC SmartRelay to master/slave mode
IDEC SmartRelay provides a menu command for network communication settings. This
section shows you how to change IDEC SmartRelays network communication mode.
An IDEC SmartRelay works in either m
aster or slave communication mode.
Master mode versus slave mode
An IDEC SmartRelay in master mode supports client-server communication with other FL1F
devices across Ethernet. This IDEC SmartRelay can additionally act as a master to
communicate with one or more FL1F devices in slave mode.
An IDEC SmartRelay in slave mode functions as an expansion module. IDEC SmartRelay
slave devices do not reuire a circuit program. A master IDEC SmartRelay can read one or
more slave IDEC SmartRelays digital/analog input/output values and write its own digital/
analog output values to these slaves. This helps IDEC SmartRelay achieve network I/O
expansion.

ote
An IDEC SmartRelay in slave mode can also have its own expansion modules. It also
supports a maximum of 24 digital inputs, 8 analog inputs, 20 digital outputs and 8 analog
outputs.
