PRECAUTIONS FOR 
USE OF AnS SERIES 
MODULE
(1) Input (X) loading
Whether inputs can be loaded or not from the input modules and intelligent function 
modules controlled by another CPU is determined by "I/O sharing when using Multiple 
CPUs" on the <<Multiple CPU setting>> tab of the C Controller setting utility.
(a) When "All CPUs can read all inputs" has been set
1) When the bus interface function is executed, ON/OFF data is downloaded from 
the input modules and intelligent function modules controlled by another CPU 
to the inputs (X) of the host CPU.
