Connecting to a CPM2C
The CPM2C PCs do not have the same kind of port connectors found on
CS1-series PCs. The CPM2C’s communication port handles both RS-232C and
peripheral port connections which are divided internally. Therefore, when using
the CPM2C, it is necessary to select RS-232C or peripheral port connections,
according to the kind of cable and port (on the cable) used, as shown in the fol-
lowing table. Refer to the CPM2C Operation Manual for more details.

Connecting to a CS1 Series Serial Communications Board
Serial Communications Board with RS-422A/485 port equipped for CS1 series
CPU Type :
CS1W-SCB41 (The port 2 is RS-422A/485 port.)
Allocation DM Area Settings for CPU
Settings are written from the Programming Device (a Programming Console or
CX-Programmer) directly into the allocation DM area (system setting area) of
the CPU. After the settings are written, they become effective by turning the
power ON, restarting the unit, restarting the communication port, or executing
the STUP command.
In the following, the channel numbers of the allocation DM area and the settings
are shown.
