Here, we will describe Host Link and No-protocol communications.
Peripheral
bus
Provides high-speed communica-
tions with Programming Devices
other than Programming Con-
soles.
(Remote programming through
modems is not supported.)
OK OK

only)
Up to ten words per Unit can be
shared by up to nine CPU Units,
including one Polling Unit and
eight Polled Units.
An RS-422A Converter can be
connected to the RS-232C port on
each CPU Unit to communicate
via RS-422A/485, or two CPU
Units can communicate via an RS-
232C connection.
The Serial PLC Links can also
include PTs as Polled Units via NT
Links (1:N) combined with CJ1M
CPU Units.
