Communication functions other than EtherNet/IP

In addition to EtherNet/IP communications, CB-EP100 allows you to use the the
following communication methods by connecting an Ethernet cable to the RJ-45
connector.

• Communication with the "LJ-Navigator2" software supplied with the LJ-V7000

series

• Sending and receiving PLC and PC commands using the LJ-V7000 series

protocol

Using multiple communication functions together may prevent them from
achieving their best performance.

Communication with the "LJ-Navigator2" software supplied with the LJ-
V7000 series

Connecting to a PC where the LJ-Navigator2 is installed allows communication
between the LJ-Navigator2 and the LJ-V7000 series controller via the CB-EP100.
All LJ-Navigator2 functions are then available.

For the operating instructions and details on the functions of LJ-Navigator2,

refer to the manual for LJ-Navigator2.

Sending and receiving PLC and PC commands using the LJ-V7000 series
protocol

The LJ-V7000 series protocol allows you to communicate with the LJ-V7000 series
controller via the CB-EP100.
A PC can use the communication library that the LJ-V7000 series provides.
However, only a command-based send and receive interface is available. A high-
speed communication interface is not available.

The communication library software and the reference manual can be
found on the "LJ-H2" CD-ROM supplied with the LJ-V7000 series. The port
number of the CB-EP100 is stored in the following attributes.

Class ID = 6BH

Instance ID = 00H

Attribute ID = 350H

The default value of this setting is 50000.
Set the IP address assigned to the CB-EP100 and the port number of the
CB-EP100 in the PC communication settings of LJ-Navigator2, and start
communication.
