Reading the Module Configuration
This section describes how to acquire the information about expansion modules and cartridges connected to the CPU module and
automatically display the configuration.
1. Connect a PC to the USB port, Ethernet Port 1, or Port 1 on the FC6A Series MicroSmart.
For details, see the "FC6A Series MicroSmart All-in-One Type Communication Manual".
2. Click Read Module Configuration in the module configuration area.
The configuration of expansion modules and cartridges connected to the CPU module is displayed in the module configuration
area.
Notes:
• Read module configuration only reads the connection status of expansion modules and cartridges. It does not read the configured
parameters. Therefore, the expansion module and cartridge parameters are the default values. Configure the parameters as necessary.
• If an expansion I/O module is connected, the actual model number such as FC6A-N08B1 cannot be read by reading the module
configuration. The model number will be a general term for number of I/O points such as 16 inputs or 16 outputs. Change the model number
to the actual model number after reading the module configuration.
