8-2-4 Route Path
(6) Using an NX701 CPU as a relay unit (built-in EtherNet/IP port 2 to built-in EtherNet/IP
port 1)
(Local CPU #00 to destination CPU #00 via local CPU #01, relay CPU #01, and relay
CPU #00)
(a) Own CPU #00 to relay IP address
• Network type number: ”01” (Output to Backplane port)
• Destination address: ”#01” (CPU#01)
*1
*1 This is in order to output using the sender IP address of built-in EtherNet/IP port 2.
(b) Relay backplane to relay CPU #01
• Network type number: ”02” (Output to communication port)
• Destination address: Specify the relay IP address
(c) Relay backplane to relay CPU #00
• Network type number: ”01” (Output to Backplane port)
• Destination address: ”#00” (CPU#00)
*1
*1 This is in order to output using the sender IP address of built-in EtherNet/IP port 1.
(d) Relay CPU #00 to destination IP address
• Network type number: ”02” (Output to communication port)
• Destination address: Specify the destination IP address
