1. Control Method Overview
RC Gateway Function (SIO Type and Fieldbus Type) enables an operation in the network with the X-SEL
controller as the master and RC (ROBO Cylinder : Described as RC from now) controller as the slave, and
is able to operate the RC (ROBO Cylinder) axes with SEL language programs.
The existing RC Gateway Function (SIO Type) uses RS232C port equipped on X-SEL controller in
standard to construct a simple network system. Also, Fieldbus Type enables to construct a system with the
communication network faster than the existing SIO type by adding the dedicated network board (option).
This manual explains how to set up RC Gateway Function (SIO type and Fieldbus type).
Refer to the separate instruction manual for how to handle X-SEL controller.
Caution
࡮
SIO type is the standard function for P/Q/PX/QX/R/S/RX/SX/RXD/SXD type X-SEL
controllers.
࡮ Fieldbus type is an optional function for P/Q/PX/QX/R/S/RX/SX/RXD/SXD type X-SEL
controllers.
