Introduction Section 6-1
6-1-1 SEND and RECV
I/O memory data from other nodes can be read or written by simply using the
program in the CPU Unit of a C200HX/HG/HE, CS/CJ-series, CVM1, CV-
series, or CQM1H-series PLC to execute SEND and RECV.
CS/CJ-series PLCs
SEND SEND transmits “n” words beginning with S (the beginning word for data
transmission at the source node) to “n” words beginning with D (the beginning
word for data reception at the destination node, N.)
Note 1. When communicating with a CVM1 or CV-series PLC manufactured prior
to April 1996 on the local network, the local network address cannot be set
to “00.” Set a number other than “00” as the local network address in the
routing tables, and then specify that number.
Source node: Destination

SEND:
1:1 or 1:N (broadcast)
There are no responses for broadcasting.
1:1 or 1:N (broadcast)
There are no responses for broadcasting.
RECV: 1:1
Data length 1,980 bytes max. (990 words) 1,990 bytes max.
Message service SEND/RECV instructions CMND instruction (FINS commands)
S: Source node beginning send word
D: Destination node beginning receive word
C: Source node first control data word
Destination node N
01 to 20 (Hex): 1 to 32 (or 01 to 3E (Hex): 1 to 62)
The same data can be broadcast to all nodes
on the network by setting the destination node address to
FF (Hex).
The range of node addresses will vary for networks
other than Controller Link Networks.

If the baud rate is slow, then setting a small
value may generate an error. The standard is
approximately 4 seconds at 1 Mbps or 8
seconds at 500 Kbps.
