Information Window
When the target PLC is online, Communications Units connected to the target PLC (referred to here
as simple “Communications Units”) are displayed as follows:.
Target Device, Target PLC CPU Unit model (network address) (node address)
• CPU Unit name [model] (network address) (-) (serial port FINS unit address)
• Communications Unit name [model] (network address) (node address) (unit number)
• Communications Unit name [model] (network address) (node address) (unit number)
Communications configuration information can be uploaded by right-clicking a Communications Unit
and selecting Transfer – Network to PC.
Ethernet Node information for FINS communications (CPU Unit model, Ethernet
Unit mode, node address, and network address)
Controller Link Information on nodes participating in the Controller Link network (CPU
Unit model, Controller Link Unit mode, node address, and network
address)
The following functions are also possible if the Controller Link Network
Diagnostic Tool is started.
Configuration node diagnosis (network participation status, current
Controller Link Unit errors, current CPU Unit errors, and differences from
node files), setting diagnosis (e.g., DM Area parameter setting
consistency), line disconnection information diagnosis, transmission
status diagnosis, node status (displaying current error status and error
log), error log collection, and node file editing (node names, connection
order, and Repeater Units)
SYSMAC LINK Information on nodes participating in the SYSMAC LINK network (CPU
Unit model, Controller Link Unit mode, node address, and network
address)
DeviceNet Information on nodes connected to DeviceNet for which EDS files are
installed on the computer (DeviceNet Unit model, slave model,
master/slave node addresses)
CompoWay/F Information on nodes connected to a serial port in serial gateway mode or
protocol macro mode for which CPS files are installed on the computer
(CompoWay/F SLAVE model and CompoWay/F node address).
Note: CS/CJ-series CPU Units with unit version 3.0 or later, or Serial
Communications Boards/Units with unit version 1.2 or later, or
CP-series Communications Option Boards must be used.
Communications
monitoring functions
NT Link Information on nodes connected to 1:N NT Links (NS-series PT model
and NT Link unit number)
Note: Automatic detection of NS-series PTs connected serially to a
CS/CJ-series PLC is also possible. (The NT Link Automatic Setting
Function automatically changes the setting of the PLC’s serial port to
match those of the NS-series PT.)
Ethernet Ethernet Unit settings (CPU Bus Unit System Settings)
Controller Link
SYSMAC LINK
User-set data link tables
Controller Link and SYSMAC LINK Unit settings (in allocated DM Area
words), including automatically set data link parameters (transferred to
the startup node set as the target PLC)
DeviceNet DeviceNet Unit master parameters (remote I/O allocations, connection
settings, device information check, communications cycle time, etc.)
Slave parameters
CompoWay/F CompoWay/F slave parameters (except for Temperature Controllers)
Note: Parameters for CompoWay/F-compatible Temperature Controllers
are set using the CX-Thermo, started as an application.
PLC serial port communications settings (CPU Unit: part of PLC Setup,
Serial Communications Boards/Units: allocated DM Area words)
NT Link None
Setting functions
FINS networks, such
as Ethernet, Controller
Link, SYSMAC LINK,
and DeviceNet
Routing tables (FINS local routing tables and FINS network routing
tables)
Note: The FINS local routing table is transferred to the target PLC.
Verification functions Verifying communications/network configurations
Verifying component parameters
Operations The following operations are possible for the CPU Unit at the target PLC.
Creating, editing, and transferring I/O tables
Displaying current errors and error logs
Changing the operating mode
Transferring or verifying a manually set data link table
Transferring or verifying a routing table (FINS local routing table)
