1.2 Outline and Features of Communication Types
This section outlines the communication types supported by FX PLCs.
1.2.1 CC-Link Network
→ Refer to the manual of each special function product.
1. Outline
1) When the master station is an A/QnA/Q PLC
2) When the master station is an FX PLC
2. Applicable PLCs
: Applicable (If applicable versions are limited, they are described inside ( ).)
—: Not applicable
3. Communication targets
Equipment operating in accordance with the CC-Link standard
4. Function
This network allows connection of inverters, AC servos, sensors, solenoid valves, etc. supporting the CC-Link
network to achieve data link.
FX PLCs are classified as master stations or remote device stations.
