7-3-4 VB Computer Link Slave
When the VS PLC’s communication port has been set to the application type of the “VS Computer Link Slave”, the
human-machine interface (HMI) or supervisory control and data acquisition system (SCADA) can access the VS PLC’s
data through the “M, VB and VH series Communication Protocol” (hereby referred to as VB protocol).
This application type is mainly applied to the following situations:
1. When the old versions of HMI or SCADA can only support the “M, VB and VH Protocol” but not support the
“VS Computer Link Protocol”.
2. When the existed “VB Protocol” network is added with a new VS series PLC, the added VS PLC must work under this
application type.
When the VS PLC works under this application type, the components can be accessed are limited to the previously VB
series PLC can support. (The components which the VS PLC can be used are more then the VB series have.)
Selectable: 300/600/1200/2400/4800/9600/19200/34800/57600/115200 bps.

※ Usually the default delay response time is not necessary to change, except that:
When the suspect of bad communication is caused by the problem of signal collision in the circuit, try to extend
the delay response time.
