„

Serial Interface

RS-232C for CIR#01, and RS-485/422 for CIR#02

Only 1 stop bit for CIR#02.

„

Transmission Mode

• RTU: Specifies RTU Mode for MEMOBUS protocol.
• ASCII: Specifies ASCII Mode for MEMOBUS protocol.
• None: For MELSEC or no-protocol.

„

Transmission Delay

When the transmission delay is designated, a delay time of 1 to 100 ms is set for the start of
data transmission.

• Master: The delay time from when the MSG-SND function is executed until the com-

mand is sent.

• Slave: The delay time from when the MSG-RCV function receives the command until

the response is sent.

„

Automatic Response

This is the set range for relays, registers, and coils that are used for sending automatic
response messages when requests are received from the master. Therefore, it is enabled for
slaves.

Automatic response does not need to be set when there are no messages to be transferred
between the master and slaves. If the MSG-RCV function is already being used in a ladder
program to send response messages, then turn OFF the automatic reception so that process-
ing is not duplicated.

As the system default, response messages are sent within the set ranges for the parameters
from here onwards.
