Refer to GP screen creation software's "SYSTEM SETTINGS" area.
Occasionally, you may want to change your GP's general operation settings. The
settings used for this are found in the INITIALIZE option in the GP OFFLINE
mode's MAIN MENU.
This chapter explains each of the OFFLINE mode's INITIALIZE items. However,
there are 2 types of INITIALIZE settings, those for the
1:1
connection and those
for the
n:1
(multi-link) connection
*1
.
The
n:1
mark appears on original menu items concerned only with the n:1
multi-link connection. If there is no mark, the menu item is common to both 1:1
and n:1 connections.
1:1
Processing where a single (1) GP is connected with a single (1) PLC.
n:1
Processing where multiple GPs are connected with a single PLC. The GPs
successively pass a
PLC Access Token
(exclusive PLC interaction key)
among themselves to designate which unit can communicate with the PLC.
If you transfer your screen design software's System file
*2
, the GP operates using that
data. If the GP System file has been correctly setup and transferred, the INITIAL-
IZE settings become unnecessary. For more information about GP System files
