(1) Communication monitor flag
This flag is used to monitor the communication condition with other stations. Non-connected station

The master station periodically executes communication recovery operation with the communication
error slave station. When the error situation is recovered, the master station returns to normal
communication.

This flag is used to monitor the operation condition of slave stations when the communication with
each slave station is normal.

* Even if a master station PC has stopped operation normally or by an error, the JW-21MN turns
"ON" this flag while communicating.
(3) Operation condition monitor flag [2]
This flag is used to monitor the abnormal stop of each slave station when the communication with
each slave station is normal.

"ON" this flag while communicating.
