5.2 Utilizing the MX Component
When an external device is a personal computer, use separately sold communication
support tools (MX Component). This allows a communication program for the external
device to be created, regardless of MC protocol’s transmitting/receiving procedure.
For details on MX Component, refer to Appendix 7 and the operating manual of MX
Component.
