4.7 Redundant-CPU-Compatible Function
This section explains the case of using the CC-Link IE Controller Network module with Redundant CPUs.
4.7.1 Overview of redundant system operation
(1) Cyclic transmission processing
1. A redundant system is composed of system A and system B, and the same send ranges for
respective stations in link devices (LB/LW) are set for stations of systems A and B.
*1
2. The station acting as the control system sends and receives cyclic data.
3. The station acting as the standby system only receives cyclic data.
4. The source CPU-side-device data in the own station's send range in the link devices (LB/LW) must
be tracking-transferred.
*2*3
For details of tracking transfer, refer to the following.
QnPRHCPU User's Manual (Redundant System)
*1 Pairing is not available for communication using LX/LY.
*2 Tracking transfer is not available for link direct devices (J\).
*3 Do not use tracking transfer for the link special relay (SB0020 to SB01FF) and link special register (SW0020 to
SW01FF) that are turned ON/OFF by the system.
