Before setting Stage No. and Slot No.
The PLC CPU recognizes the GOT as follows.
• QCPU (Q mode)
: Intelligent function module of 16 I/O points
• Other than QCPU (Q mode)
: Intelligent function module of 32 I/O points
At the [Detail setting], assign the GOT to an empty I/O
slot on the PLC CPU.
(1) When connecting to QCPU (Q mode)
Set an additional stage (16 points 10 slots) for GOT
connection, and assign a GOT to one of the I/O slots.
(The GOT cannot be assigned to empty slots of the
main base unit or extension base unit.)
When using the bus extension connector box
Set the Stage No. switch on the bus extension
connector box to the same Stage No. as the GOT.
For setting details, refer to the following manual:
