Setting the Front Switches
Set the CPU DIP switches to 4 or 5 in accordance with the port NT31/NT31C is
connected to.

DIP switches (inside the battery storage)
• Set SW4 to ON (establishing communication in ac-

cordance with PC Setup) when connecting the
NT31/NT31C to the peripheral port.

• Set SW5 to OFF (establishing communication in ac-

cordance with PC Setup) when connecting the
NT31/NT31C to the RS-232C port.

Peripheral port

This is used mainly for
connection to the
Programming Device.
(This also supports the
RS-232C unit connection.)

RS-232 port

This is used mainly for
connection to the

(This also supports the
CX-Programmer.)

Allocation DM Area Settings for CPU Unit
Settings are written from the Programming Device (a Programming Console or
CX-Programmer) directly into the allocation DM area (system setting area) of
the CPU. After the settings are written, they become effective by turning the
power ON, restarting the unit, restarting the communication port, or execution of
the STUP command.

In the following, the channel numbers of the allocation DM area and the settings
are shown.

When Using the NT Link (1:1) Method

Compatible Host Units
Some models and series of OMRON PCs have the NT link (1:1) function built in.
With CQM1H PCs, a Serial Communications Board can be added to provide 1:1
NT Link communications. Some C200HX/HG/HE(-Z)E CPUs can be connected
by the NT link (1:1) method by installing a Communication Board.

Check the model and series of the PC against the type of CPU before making the
connections.
