MELSEC-Q
4 SETTINGS AND PROCEDURES PRIOR TO OPERATION
(2) Restart the PLC CPU station or reset the CPU. The test starts automatically in
about one second.
(3) For the Q series C24, the following tests should be performed once.
1) ROM check
Read the ROM data and verify the sum check.
2) RAM check
Write data to RAM, and read and check it.
3) Switch check
Check whether or not each switch is set within the tolerance range and the
operation setting in the transmission settings is set to off.
4) Linked operation setting check (perform this test with the operation setting in
the transmission settings of CH2 set to on)
Check to see that the communication protocol setting on CH1 is set to 8
H
and
whether the communication rate setting of each channel is within the tolerance
range.
A linked operation setting check is performed when values are set as follows:
• Communication protocol setting on the CH1 side
: 8
H
• Operation setting in the transmission settings on the CH2 side: bit 8 = ON.
(Procedure 3) Checking results of ROM/RAM/switch tests
(1) The test is completed when the NEU LED on CH1 side is lit (approximately 2
seconds).
(2) The test is completed normally when the ERR LED turns off.
(3) The test is completed with error when the ERR LED turns on. Check the error
description in one of the following screens.
• The "Monitor/test others" screen of GX Configurator-SC (see Section 8.6.9)
• The buffer memory monitor screen of GX Developer (see the GX Developer
Manual for the operation method)
When checking errors in the buffer memory monitor screen of GX Developer,
monitor the following buffer memory.
Check the error descriptions on the screens by bit-decoding the monitored value
(16-bit integer). Each bit corresponds to the following error description.
