MELSEC-Q

19 STARTING UP THE MULTIPLE PLC SYSTEM

Set parameters written onto the hard disk

or floppy disk.

End

Setup of parameters other than

the multiple PLC system settings.

Selects "CPU (Empty)" for the slots on which CPU

modules are not to be mounted by type.

Select "Detailed Settings" on the I/O assignment window

to display the detail settings window.

Control PLC settings (required item)

• Selects the control PLCs (PLC No.1 to No.4) for

each slot.

• Function version A intelligent function modules set the

control PLC No.1.

• Output modules and special function modules that support

the AnS series set a single PLC in all slots.
