3.2 Host Setting
To activate Fieldbus, the following settings are required for the host. Particularly, pay attention so
that the address range to use includes setting values of this product.
IMPORTANT
Donotturno󰀨thepowerimmediatelyaftersetting.
To improve the reliability of the device, processing to store data to EEPROM is duplexing.
Ifthepoweristurnedo󰀨within60secondsaftersettingismade,themodiedparametersarenot
saved, and the settings may return to the original values.
Table 3.1 Operation Parameters
Symbol Parameter Name Description and Setting
V(ST) Slot-Time
Indicates the time necessary for the immediate reply of the device.
Unitoftimeisinoctets(256µs).Setthemaximumspecicationfor
all devices. For this product, set a value of 4 or greater.
V(MID) Minimum-Inter-PDU- Delay
Indicates the minimum value of communication data intervals to
startreply.Unitoftimeisinoctets(256µs).Setthemaximum
specicationforalldevices.Forthisproduct,setavalueof4or
greater.
V(MRD) Maximum-Response-Delay
Indicates the worst-case time elapsed until a reply is received.
SincetheunitisSlot-time,setthevaluesothatV(MRD)xV(ST)
isthemaximumvalueofthespecicationsforalldevices.Forthis
product,setV(MRD)xV(ST)toavalueof12orgreater.
V(FUN) First-Unpolled-Node
Indicates the address next to the address range used by the host.
Set 14 or more in hexadecimal notation.
V(NUN)
Number-of-consecutive-
Unpolled-Node
Unused address range. If a large value is set, it reduces the
communication load of the bus.
