modes are available. Select an online mode according to the
system.
*1 This mode cannot be selected for the submaster
station.

Set parameters of slave stations (the number of points and
assignment of link devices) in the master station and submaster
station.
When the checkbox next to "Set the network configuration setting in
the CC IE Field configuration window" is checked, the button will be
changed to .
In this manual, the operation with the checkbox checked is described
for explanation purpose.

Mode Description
Online (Normal Mode)
This mode performs cyclic transmission and
transient transmission without losing their inherent
speed performance. This mode is suitable for a
system that performs I/O control and analog
control, and transmits large amount of data for
management, monitoring, and diagnostics by
transient transmission. ( Page 529,
Appendix 6)
Use this mode for general applications.
Online (High Speed
Mode)
This mode preferentially performs cyclic
transmission for high-speed communications. This
mode is suitable for a system to achieve I/O
control, analog control, and digital I/O at high-
speed. ( Page 529, Appendix 6)
Note that the maximum number of points assigned
to RWw/RWr is 256 points per local station.
In this mode, the processing speed of transient
transmission is slower than in "Online (Normal
Mode)".
Offline
Select this mode to disconnect the master/local
module from the network for stopping data link
with other stations.
H/W Test
Select this mode to perform a hardware test.

Self-Loopback Test
Select this mode to perform a self-loopback test.

Mode Description
Online
Select this mode to connect the master/local
module to the network for performing data link with
other stations.
Offline
Select this mode to disconnect the master/local
module from the network for stopping data link
with other stations.
H/W Test
Select this mode to perform a hardware test.
