1.1 General
Description
of
Operation
This section describes the datacommunication between
the
A2C,
the
remote
I/O module and
the
remote terminal module.
See Section 4.2
for
the A2C functions.
1.1.1 ON/OFF data communication between the A2C and the remote I/O module
ON/OFF data communication is performed using inputs (X) and outputs
(Y).
(1) Input/output number assignment of
the
remote I/O module
The
input/output
numbers of the A2C system are assigned from x/yOOO
to X/y1 FF in
the
order of the station number
(1
to 64) set
for
each remote
I/O module.
Data communication with a remote I/O module is performed using ..
inputs (X) and outputs
(Y)
assigned
for
each module.
'Ill
See Section 4.7 for
the
relationship between station numbers and i/O
numbers.
(2) ON/OFF data communication with
the
remote I/O module
The ON/OFF data communication with the remote I/O module is per-
formed in the refresh mode.
Fig. 1.1 shows the data communication between the A2C and the
~
remote I/O modules. ,
