1. Overview
This specification covers the communication protocol between the host and SEL controller (see the cover page for applicable
models).
The SEL controller can communicate with the host in the AUTO mode via a PC connector or teaching connector using this
protocol by setting "I/O parameter No. 90: Usage of user-open SIO channel xx" (xx: see *) to 2 (IAI protocol B (slave)). (To which
connector, a PC connector or teaching connector, to be connected varies with the controller. Refer to 2, “Transmission Control
Procedure" for details.)
* xx in "I/O parameter No. 90: Usage of user-open SIO channel xx" above denotes a channel number as follows.
