  The value of this system register must be identical for all stations. 
When link areas are allocated as shown above, the send area of station no. 1 can be 
transmitted to the receive areas of stations no. 2, 3, and 4. Also, the receive area of station 
no. 1 can receive data from the send areas of stations no. 2 and 3. Station no. 4 is allocated 
as a receive area only and can receive data from stations no. 1, 2, and 3, but cannot send 
data to other stations.

Set system register 46 to "Reverse" to use PLC link 1. See "PLC Link 0 and 1 Allocation 
Setting" on page
