(6) Precautions
(a) Precautions for using two Ethernet channels (ports) (Q12DCCPU-V only)
When using two channels as Ethernet ports, two different network addresses
must be set for CH1 and CH2 of the C Controller module.
In the above case, a response to the message received through each channel is
sent as follows.
• Messages (including response packets such as ping) to the device having the
same network address as CH1 are sent from CH1.
• Messages (including response packets such as ping) to the device having the
same network address as CH2 are sent from CH2.
<Example where communications are not available>
Normal communications are not available with a personal computer of a different
network address through an Ethernet port if the configuration is as shown below.
* 1 A personal computer with the same network address is not connected to the Ethernet port.
* 2 A personal computer connected to the Ethernet port has a different network address.
