17 COMMUNICATIONS BETWEEN THE MULTIPLE PLC SYSTEM'S I/O

MODULES AND INTELLIGENT FUNCTION MODULES

(5) Accessing MELSECNET/H modules

Only control PLCs can access MELSECNET/H modules.

Link direct devices cannot be used in MELSECNET/H modules being controlled

by other PLCs.

"OPERATION ERROR (error code: 4102)" occurs if a program that uses link

direct devices is used in MELSECNET/H modules being controlled by other

PLCs.
