• If you select a conguration item and press
Insert
, an empty conguration line will be added following the item. If
you select a conguration item and press
Delete
, the item will be deleted. In addition, you can press shortcut keys
or right-click an item to copy-paste or delete it, and insert or delete a line.
● Register
Host and PLC register values correspond to D elements. IS and MD register values correspond to
parameter numbers. TCM/NTCM corresponds to BFM.
● Number of registers
It is the number of sent or received consecutive D elements or parameter numbers.
● Point-to-multipoint conguration
When a sending station is also a receiving station, the station applies the point-to-multipoint conguration,
in which no receiving station is specied. If you enter the sending station number into the receiving
conguration table, the congured station can receive data sent by the sending station. The received
register is the D element or parameter number corresponding to the receiving station.
● Received data
The entries in the gray background indicate data received from other stations, including point-to-point and
point-to-multipoint data. You can see which element or parameter number of which station will affect the
congured station.
● Receiving conguration
Receiving conguration applies to receiving point-to-multipoint data from other stations. Each station can
receive point-to-multipoint data from eight stations.
Example
Diagram of receiving conguration
In this example, the master station (station 1) sends the D1000 value in the form of a point-to-multipoint
frame to the receiving station D192 at an interval of 100 ms. Based on the receiving conguration of slave
stations 10, 20, and 30, slave stations 10 and 20 will receive and write the frame in D192, while station 30
will ignore the frame.
• Point-to-multipoint conguration enables data to take effect simultaneously. It is equivalent to master station
synchronization conguration; however, the master station is not the only sending station. Each station can receive
point-to-multipoint data from a maximum of eight stations. However, the number of stations receiving point-to-
multipoint data sent by each station is not limited. That is, all stations other than the sending station can receive
data if the sending station number is entered into the receiving conguration table.
