@ Host link communication method
selection (selector switch)
Set this to RS-422A.
@ Host link default value settings
(DIP SW4)
To effect the existing DIP switch
settings, set SW4 to ON.
To effect the values set in the PC Setup,
set SW4 to OFF.
Note
For CPUs manufactured before or
during June 1995 (lot No. jj65), the
existing DIP switch settings differ from
the PC Setup default values as follows.
- Existing DIP switch settings:
2,400 bps, 1 stop bit, even parity, 7 bit
data length
- PC Setup default values:
9,600 bps, 2 stop bits, even parity, 7
bit data length
For CPUs manufactured from July 1995
onward (lot No. jj75), the stipulated
values in the DIP switch settings also
are 9600 bps and 2 stop bits.
RS-232C
@ Terminator setting (DIP SW6)
Set this switch to ON.
(Set terminator ON.)
@ Communication type setting (DIP SW3)
Set SW3 to OFF.
(for host link communication)
C200HX/HG/HE(-Z)E, CPM1, CPM2A, CPM2C, CQM1H, or SRM1
The connection method depends upon the model of PC being used, as shown in
the following table.
PC model Connection method
C200HX/HG/HE(-Z)E • Connect to the RS-422A port (port A) on a Communications
Board.
CQM1H • Connect to the RS-422A port (port 2) on a Serial Commu-
nications Board.
CPM1 • Connect to the peripheral port through a CPM1-CIF11
RS-422A Adapter.
CPM2A, SRM1 • Connect to the peripheral port through a CPM1-CIF11
RS-422A Adapter.
CPM2C • Connect to the peripheral port (on a CPM2C-CN111 or
CS1W-CN114 Connecting Cable) through a CPM1-CIF11
RS-422A Adapter.
(The CPM2C-CN111 splits the Unit’s Communication Port
into a RS-232C port and a peripheral port.)
Reference: S There are no Communication Boards for the C200HX/HG/HE(-Z)E in which
port B is the RS-422A port.
S There are no Serial Communication Boards for the CQM1H in which port 1 is
the RS-422A port.
