All Communica-
tions Port 
Completion 
Codes
These words contain the completion codes for the 
corresponding port numbers when network instruc-
tions (SEND, RECV, CMND, or PMCR) or back-
ground execution (CJ1-H CPU Units only) have been 
executed.
(The corresponding word will be cleared when back-
ground execution has been completed for CJ1-H 
CPU Units.)
Words A203 to A210 correspond to communications 
ports 0 to 7.
Non-zero: Error code
0000: Normal condition
The following codes will be stored when an Explicit 
Message Instruction (EXPLT, EGATR, ESATR, 
ECHRD, or ECHWR) has been executed.
If the Explicit Communications Error Flag turns OFF, 
0000 hex is stored.
If the Explicit Communications Error Flag is ON and 
the Network Communications Error Flag is ON, the 
FINS end code is stored.
If the Explicit Communications Error Flag is ON and 
the Network Communications Error Flag is OFF, the 
explicit message end code is stored.
During communications, 0000 hex will be stored and 
the suitable code will be stored when execution has 
been completed. The code will be cleared when 
operation is started.
(The completion code for a given port is cleared to 
0000 when a network instruction with that port num-
ber is executed.)
(When the simple backup operation is used to per-
formed a write or compare operation for a Memory 
Card on a CS1-H CPU Unit, a communications port 
will be automatically allocated, and a completion 
code will be stored in the corresponding word.)
(The completion code for a given port is cleared to 
0000 when a network instruction with that port num-
ber is executed.)
(When the simple backup operation is used to per-
formed a write or compare operation for a Memory 
Card on a CJ1-H or CJ1M CPU Unit, a communica-
tions port will be automatically allocated, and a com-
pletion code will be stored in the corresponding 
word.)

Explicit Com-
munications 
Error Flag
Turn ON when an error occurs in executing an 
Explicit Message Instruction (EXPLT, EGATR, 
ESATR, ECHRD, or ECHWR).
Bits 00 to 07 correspond to communications ports 0 
to 7.
1: Error end
0: Normal end
The corresponding bit will turn ON both when the 
explicit message cannot be sent and when an error 
response is returned for the explicit message.
The status will be maintained until the next explicit 
message communication is executed. The bit will 
always turn OFF when the next Explicit Message 
Instruction is executed.

First Cycle 
Flags after 
Network Com-
munications 
Finished 
Each flag will turn ON for just one cycle after commu-
nications have been completed. Bits 00 to 07 corre-
spond to ports 0 to 7. Use the Used Communications 
Port Number stored in A218 to determine which flag 
to access. 
1: First cycle after communications finish only
2: Other status
Note: These flags are not effective until the next 
cycle after the communications instruction is exe-
cuted. Delay accessing them for at least one cycle.
