range of the BASIC device. When the EJA is used as
Link Master, place the EJA in the range of LM device.
Set the range of addresses to be used to the LM device.
Set the following parameters.

Parameters for Setting Address Range

V (FUN) First-Unpolled-Node
Indicates the address next
to the address range used
for the host or other LM
device.

Unpolled-Node
Unused address range
Symbol
Parameters
Description
The devices within the address range written as
“Unused” in Figure 5.1 cannot be used on a Fieldbus.
For other address ranges, the range is periodically
checked to identify when a new device is mounted.
Care must be taken to keep the unused device range as
narrow as possible so as to lessen the load on the
Fieldbus.

To ensure stable operation of Fieldbus, determine the
operation parameters and set them to the LM devices.
While the parameters in Table 5.2 are to be set, the
worst-case value of all the devices to be connected to
the same Fieldbus must be used. Refer to the specifica-
tion of each device for details. Table 5.2 lists EJA
specification values.

Operation Parameter Values of the EJA to be
Set to LM Devices
Indicates the time
necessary for immediate
reply of thje device. Unit of
time is in octets (256

s).
Set maximum specification
for all devices. For EJA,
set a value of 4 or greater.

intervals. Unit of time is in
octets (256

s). Set the
maximum specification for
all devices. For EJA, set a
value of 4 or greater.
V (MRD) Maximum-Response-
Delay
The worst case time
elapsed until a reply is
recorded. The unit is Slot-
time; set the value so that
V (MRD)
ϫ
V (ST) is the
maximum value of the
specification for all
devices. For EJA, the
setting must be a value of
12 or greater.
5.3 Definition of Combining
Function Blocks
The input/output parameters for function blocks are
combined. For the EJA, two AI blocks output param-
eter (OUT) and PID block are subject to combination.
They are combined with the input of the control block
as necessary. Practically, setting is written to the EJA
link object with reference to “Block setting” in Section
5.6 for details. It is also possible to read values from
the host at proper intervals instead of connecting the
EJA block output to other blocks.
The combined blocks need to be executed synchro-
nously with other blocks on the communications
schedule. In this case, change the EJA schedule
according to the following table. The values in the
table are factory-settings.
