NJ-series CPU Unit Software User’s Manual (W501)
The processing for tag data links is separated in multiple processes. This processing is performed in
the tag data link service, the system services, and the tasks. The following example shows the process-
ing that is performed for the tag data links when the built-in EtherNet/IP port on the CPU Unit is used.
Flow of Tag Data Reception Processing
• The tag data link service reads the tag data from the received tag sets.
• If a refreshing task is set, the task writes the values of the tag data to the variables that are
assigned to the tags.
• If a refreshing task is not set, a system service writes the values of the tag data to the variables
that are assigned to the tags.
Flow of Tag Data Transmission Processing
• If a refreshing task is set, the task reads the values of the tag data from the variables that are
assigned to the tags.
• If a refreshing task is not set, a system service reads the values of the tag data from the variables
that are assigned to the tags.
• Then, in the tag data link service, the tag set is created from the tag data and the tag set is sent.
