Connecting to the RS-232C Port at the Host Section 4-1
Either set the PLC Setup directly from a Programming Device (Programming
Console), or transmit the PLC Setup made at a Programming Device (CX-
Programmer) to the CPU Unit.
For details on the PLC Setup, refer to the CS-series Operation Manual
(W339) or the SYSMAC CJ Series Operation Manual (W393).
Using the CPU Unit’s Built-in RS-232C Port
Using the CPU Unit’s Peripheral Port
Setting the Front Switches
Set the CPU Unit’s DIP switches to 4 or 5 in accordance with the port NT31/
NT31C is connected to. An example of a CS-series CPU Unit is shown below.
Connecting to CS-series Serial Communications Board

• Set SW4 to ON (establishing communications in
accordance with PLC Setup) when connecting the
NT31/NT31C to the peripheral port.
• Set SW5 to OFF (establishing communications in
accordance with PLC Setup) when connecting the
NT31/NT31C to the RS-232C port.
