Creating Configuration Data Section 6-2
■ Using a CP1W-CIF41 Ethernet Communications Board
TCP/IP settings, such as the IP address, must be made in the system settings
if an Ethernet Communications Option Board is used. Refer to 7-3 Ethernet
Communications for details on settings.
6-2-5 Displaying and Printing Reports
A report (i.e., a configuration report) on the configuration data that has been
set is displayed on the computer screen to check setting details.
What Is a Report?
The G9SP Configurator creates two types of reports. The characteristics of
each type are given in the following table.
Note (1) Refer to 8-2-3 Verifying the Configuration Data for information on verifica-
tion.
(2) The configuration report can be saved to a file by using commercially
available PDF creation software.
Configuration Data Application Example
■ Documentation Showing the Configuration Data Contents
Forming the details of settings made with the G9SP Configurator into a report
enables using the data for other applications.
■ Notification to Hardware Designers
Hardware designers require information on the I/O terminal allocations, cycle
time, and ON/OFF delay values to create wiring diagrams and to calculate
safety response performance. The report includes that information and can be
used as documentation for notification of details.
