1.1 Connections and Functions Supported by GOT
1 Various connection types
The GOT can perform monitoring with the following connection types for MITSUBISHI PLC.
The connection type suitable for your system configuration or usage can be selected.
Connection type Application Reference
Bus connection
Bus connection is a method using an extension connector
of a base unit in order to connect a GOT (connection by I/O
bus).
This connection type enables the fastest response to a
PLC CPU among all GOT connection types.
Multiple GOTs can be connected to a PLC CPU placed in
a distant position.
Chapter 2 BUS CONNECTION
Direct connection to CPU
Direct connection to CPU represents a connection type in
which a GOT is connected to the RS-232/RS-422
connector on a PLC CPU.
This is the most economical way of connection since an
RS-232 or RS-422 cable only is needed for the
connection.
(When connecting the GT15 to an RS-422 connector on a
PLC CPU, the RS-422 conversion unit is required.)
Chapter 3 DIRECT CONNECTION
TO CPU
Computer link connection
In this connection type, a GOT is connected to a
computer link module or a serial communication module
mounted together with a PLC CPU.
Connection of multiple GOTs is available depending on
the model type of the computer link module or the serial
communication module mounted with the PLC CPU.
For the serial communication module (QJ71C24(N)(-R2/-
R4)), 2 GOTs can also be connected to 2 channels.
Chapter 4 COMPUTER LINK
CONNECTION
MELSECNET/10 connection
(PLC to PLC network)
As a normal station of the MELSECNET/10 (PLC to PLC
network), the GOT can be connected to the network.
It can monitor cyclic data of the MELSECNET/10 (PLC to
PLC network) and devices of the PLC CPU within the
same network.
Chapter 5 MELSECNET/10
CONNECTION (PLC TO PLC
NETWORK)
CC-Link connection
(intelligent device station)
As an intelligent device station of the CC-Link System, the
GOT can be connected to the network.
It can monitor cyclic data of the CC-Link System and
devices of the PLC CPU on the master or local station.
Chapter 6 CC-Link CONNECTION
(INTELLIGENT DEVICE STATION)
CC-Link connection (via G4)
The GOT can be connected to a peripheral connection
module in the CC-Link System.
It can monitor devices of the QCPU (Q mode) on the
master or local station via the peripheral connection
module.
Chapter 7 CC-Link CONNECTION
(Via G4)
Ethernet connection
This allows PLC CPU devices monitoring via Ethernet
(UDP/IP communications).
Networks can be configured with commercially available
products such as hubs and cables.
