(4) Program example
The following is an example of the sequence program required to perform the 
communication shown in (2).
(a) Interlock program example for MELSECNET/H
Provide interlocks using the link status of the MELSECNET/H remote master 
station (host) and MELSECNET/H remote I/O station (other station). 
The example below shows an interlock for a communication program, which uses 
the link status (SB47, SB49) of the MELSECNET/H remote master station and the 
link status (SW70, SW74, SW78) of the MELSECNET/H remote I/O station 
(Station No. 1). 
Set the following value as timer constant K .
Reason: To prevent the control from stopping even if the network detects an 
instantaneous error due to a cable problem, noise or any other condition
Note that the above "4" and "3" represent standard values.
POINT
For details on interlock programs for the MELSECNET/H remote master station 
and MELSECNET/H remote I/O station, refer to the following manual.
