2 DATA COMMUNICATION USING PREDEFINED PROTOCOL
2.1 Data Communication Procedure
■Configuring detailed setting of protocols
Set the transmission/reception parameters of the protocol.
Select a row of any protocol on the "Protocol Setting" screen [Edit] [Protocol Detailed Setting].
*1 For a protocol selected from the predefined protocol library, "Connected Device Information" and "Protocol Setting Information" cannot
be modified.
Item Description
Connected Device
Information
*1
Manufacturer Set a manufacturer's name of the connected device.
Type Set a device type of the connected device.
Model Set a model of the connected device.
Version Set a device version of the connected device.
Explanation Set equipment description for the connected device.
Protocol Setting
Information
*1
Protocol No. Displays a protocol number of the selected protocol.
Protocol Name Set a protocol name of the protocol.
Communication Type Select a communication type of the protocol.
Receive Setting Clear OS area
(receive data area)
before protocol
execution
Select whether to clear the OS area (receive data area) of the module before the protocol execution.
If 'Disable' is selected, the data received in the module before the protocol execution also become a receive
target of the protocol.
Receive Wait Time Set waiting time after the module turns to the 'waiting for reception' status.
If the communication with target devices is not available due to such as a cable disconnection and no
matched packet can be received within the set time, the module determines an error and cancels the 'waiting
for reception' status.
Send Setting Number of Send
Retries
Set the number of times the module retries to send when the sending from the module has not been
completed within the set time of "Monitoring Time".
The module determines an error if the sending has not been completed despite the specified number of
times of sending retries.
Send Retry Interval Set the interval between the failure of sending from the module and the retry when the sending from the
module has not been completed within the set time of "Monitoring Time".
Standby Time Set standby time between when a protocol set to the module turns to the execution status and when it
actually sends the data. By setting this item, the send timing of the module can be adjusted to readiness of
target devices to receive data.
Monitoring Time Set waiting time between when the module turns to the 'sending' status and when the sending is completed.
If the communication with target devices is not available due to such as a cable disconnection and the
sending cannot be completed within the set time, the module determines an error and cancels the 'sending'
status.
