Sending Commands From a PC Section 5-3
5-3 Sending Commands From a PC
FINS commands can be sent from the user’s ladder-diagram program in the
PC by using the SEND(090), RECV(098), and CMND(490) instructions.
SEND(090): Writes I/O data from the local node to another node.
RECV(098): Reads I/O data from another node to the local node.
CMND(490): Issues FINS commands for controlling operations such as send-
ing and receiving I/O memory data to and from other nodes, reading informa-
tion regarding other nodes, and so on.
5-3-1 Communications Specifications
The following table shows the specifications for PC communications using the
SEND(090), RECV(098), and CMND(490) instructions.
Note 1. The maximum data length is limited to 512 bytes for data exchange be-
tween the PC and SYSMAC LINK Systems or the PC and SYSMAC BUS/
2 Remote I/O Systems.
2. When broadcasting, do not require a response.
PC Communications Data
Areas The following table shows the I/O data areas involved when SEND(090) and
RECV(098) are used.
Note 1. Data cannot be written to words A000 to A447 in the Auxiliary Area.
2. A maximum of 13 banks in the EM Area can be used. For details regarding
the EM Area, refer to the operation manual for the PC that is used.
