6 DATA COMMUNICATION USING THE NON PROCEDURE PROTOCOL
POINT
(1) The position and size of the transmission area in the buffer memory can be
changed with GX Configurator-SC in accordance with the specifications of the
external device and the received data length. (See Sections 8.4.5 and 8.4.7.)
(a) When changing the position and size of the transmission area in the buffer
memory with GX Configurator-SC, specify as follows:
1) Transmission buffer memory head address designation
Designate the starting address for the area to be used as the
transmission area in the user definable area of the buffer memory
(address: 400
H
to 1AFF
H
, 2600
H
to 3FFF
H
).
2) Transmission buffer memory length designation
Designate by addresses the length of the area (0001
H
to 1A00
H
) to be
used as the transmission area in the user definable area of the buffer
memory (address: 400
H
to 1AFF
H
, 2600
H
to 3FFF
H
).
(b) If the following functions are also used when the position and size of the
transmission area in the buffer memory are changed, make sure that the
addresses of the transmission area do not overlap with those for the
buffer memory that stores the transmission and receive data to be used
by these functions.
1) MC protocol buffer memory read/write function
2) MC protocol on-demand function
3) Non procedure protocol transmission/receive function
4) Bidirectional protocol transmission/receive function
5) Communication data monitoring function
(2) Set the size of data per data transmission from the PLC CPU to the external
device so that it is smaller than the size of the transmission data's designated
area in the buffer memory.
(Transmission data designation area) ≥ (Size of arbitrary data portion to be sent
from the PLC CPU)
To transmit data whose size is larger than the transmission data designation area,
increase the transmission area, or divide the transmission data before sending.
