3.6.5. Support of robot I/O signals and link devices 
The support of robot I/O signals and link devices for RX/RY and RWr/RWw are indicated here. 
As shown below, the link relays RX/RY and link registers RWr/RWw of a master station's link device interacts with the I/O 
signals (6000 to max. 6255) and I/O registers (6000 to max. 6127) of each robot. Even if the station number changes, the 
I/O signals of the robot are the same. Also, the number of stations occupied by a robot can be set from 1 to 4, designated 
by the setting for number of stations occupied by master stations.
