4-4 Executing CompoWay/F Commands with Protocol Macros
CompoWay/F communications can be easily performed by using the protocol macros of
the CS1-series Serial Communications Boards and Units. The Serial Communications
Boards and Units are provided with standard CompoWay/F communication protocol
called “CompoWay/F Master,” which allows the Programmable Controller to execute
CompoWay/F commands for the 3F88L-160/162 Cam Positioner without having to be
aware of CompoWay/F protocols.
