These rules apply when you set up remote programming:
•
The PLC-5 processor on one DH+ link and a PLC-5 processor on
another DH+ link can have the same address.
•
The programming terminal can be on any link.
•
Address 77 octal is an illegal bridge address on link 3. It
translates to 0xFF, which does not exist on a DH link.
