3.6. CC-Link IE Field Network Basic function
3.6.1. Overview
The CR800 series supports this function. It is not supported by the CR750/CR751 series.
CC-Link IE Field Network Basic is an FA network to which general-purpose Ethernet was applied.
For the MELFA FR series, CC-Link IE Field Network Basic slave stations are supported, and the signals and registers of
robot controllers can be input and output via regular communications (cyclic correspondence) with a PLC, computer, or
other master station.
PLC CPUs in the MELSEC iQ-R/iQ-F/Q/L series and robot controllers in the MELFA FR series have Ethernet built-in as
standard, so they do not require dedicated options. This allows system construction with minimal configuration, thereby
saving space and reducing the cost.
Because CC-Link IE Field Network Basic has application software that runs on a general-purpose Ethernet protocol stack,
TCP/IP transmissions can intermingle. Therefore, the products that support CC-Link IE Field Network Basic and the
products that support Ethernet can be connected by a single cable, which makes it easy to construct the system however
you want.
