1.3.4 Setting the CP-717 Logical Port

Up to 16 logical ports can be set for the communications process. The logical port to be used
needs to be specified when engineering a Machine Controller using the CP-717.

The logical port to be used can be set for each Machine Controller. The logical port is usu-
ally set when registering a new Machine Controller under the File Manager. The following
window will be displayed when registering a new PLC folder or opening the property win-
dow for an existing PLC folder. Click the Network Tab.

Set the logical port number in this window to the number of the logical port to be used.

This number corresponds to the

logical port number in the Com-

munication Process Window.
