4. Using M-NET Modules
1) Number of Modules
a) Communications between M-NET Modules are performed using I/O references, such
as input relays, output coils, input registers, and output registers. Therefore, I/O must
be allocated for the slot to which the M-NET Module is mounted according to the fol-
lowing rules.
