Chapter 7  Application Interface
The EN7 and FN modules provide status information on each of the sockets used by a 
user application and diagnostic information on the transmission lines connected to the 
EN7 modules in the network through the station bus. Information on each socket comes 
in two types: single Ethernet socket information and dual Ethernet socket information. (If 
the dual Ethernet modules - EN721, EN741, EN761, and FN711 - are used with single 
Ethernet sockets, refer to single Ethernet socket information.) Addresses are different on 
the station bus through which each block of status information is provided.
Application information on the station bus has the structure shown below.
Note: EN state information is valid on EN751, EN751A, EN761 only.
The user application of the S/L controller refers to socket information on the basis of 
access from the S/L controller. It is expressed in words. CntBase varies in value 
depending on the slot where an EN7 module is installed. Mounting slot values are shown 
in a later item.
The number of sockets user can use are as follows.
EN711, EN721, EN731, EN741 : 24
EN751, EN751A, EN761, FN711: 48
Above the numbers are on single socket interface. They become half on dual socket 
interface.
Note: It is prohibited to use single and dual socket interface at the same time.
