TOOL Port Communication parameter settings (GTWIN communication parameter settings)

Through function: Through function destination setting

When the through function is being used, this specifies the number of the PLC of the connection.

Normally, when used in a 1:1 configuration, this should be set to “00”.

Bitrate: GTWIN baud rate

Each time the [Function] key is touched, the Baud rate switches in the sequence of 9600/19200/115200.

Set the speed to match that of the personal compuer (GTWIN) connected to the GT30.

Format: Transmission format

This sets the communication parameters (data length, stop bits, parity) for the external device (PLC)

connected to the GT30.

The items displayed are: Data length/Stop bit/Parity, and each time the [Function] key is pressed, the

display switches in the sequence of: [7/1None], [7/1/Odd], [7/1/Even], [8/1/None], [8/1/Odd], [8/1/Even].

Set the parameters to match those of the PLC connected to the GT30.

COM. port communication parameter settings (PLC communication parameter settings)

Bitrate: PLC baud rate

This sets the baud rate for communication with an external device (PLC) connected to the GT30.

Each time the [Function] key is pressed, the baud rate switches in the sequence of 9600, 19200, 57600,
