Connecting to CX-Process Tool Section 2-3
Ethernet Unit Model
2-3-2 Using CX-Server
The following two methods can be used to connect to the PLC.
The connections shown in the following diagram can be used with either
Peripheral Bus or Host Link connections. (For Process-control CPU Units
(CS1D-CPU@@P), the connections are made to the active CPU Unit.)
2-3-3 Connecting Cables
The following table lists the Connecting Cables that can be used for Peripheral
Bus and Host Link connections. All of the cables connect to a male 9-pin D-
Sub serial port on an IBM PC/AT or compatible computer.
Note Touch a grounded metal to discharge all static electricity from your body
before connecting any of the above cable connectors to the RS-232C port of
the PLC.
The XW2Z-@@@S-CV Cable uses the anti-static XM2S-0911-E Connector
Hood. For safety sake, however, discharge all static electricity from your body
before touching the connector.
