●
Address number (ADDRESS)
Set the address number of the VJ Series itself. An address number of 1 to 99 may be
assigned in any order. However, there is a limitation - the number of VJ Series to be
connected to a single communication port is limited to 31.
Example of connecting four VJ Series signal conditioners to a higher-level device by setting
address numbers of 1, 50, 10, and 20
ADDRESS=1
ADDRESS=20
ADDRESS=10
ADDRESS=50
Maximum overall cable length of 1200 m
for a maximum of 31 substations

●
Communication rate (BAUD RATE)
Set the communication rate identical to that of the higher-level device to be connected.
(Otherwise, proper communication cannot be achieved.) The unit of the communication
rate is bps (bits per second).
●
Parity (PARITY)
Set the handling of parity to be carried out when data is sent or received. Set the parity bit
state identical to that of the higher-level device to be connected.
●
Stop bit (STOP BIT)
Set the stop bit identical to that of the higher-level device to be connected.
●
Data length (DATA LEN)
Set the data length identical to that of the higher-level device to be connected. (When
Ladder or MODBUS communication is chosen in protocol selection, the data length is
fixed.)
