PLC PRIORITY
Depending on how the GLC is used, select either Operation priority (
OPE
.) or
Display priority (
DISPLAY
).
Display
Setup the GLC to this option when using the GLC mainly as a monitor screen.
The GLC will command a higher display speed as a result; however, the response
time for the touch panel’s operations will slow.
Operation
Set up the GLC to this option when using the GLC mainly as a monitor screen.
The touch panel’s numeric value input or switch function response speed will
become higher as a result.
When “
OPE
.” is selected, the response time for the touch panel’s operation is
quicker than the response time when the “
DISPLAY
.” is selected, however, the
display refresh cycle time will slow.
•
In a standard network setup, use the same settings for all connected
GLCs.
•
To increase the display speed, be sure the addresses used are consecu-
tive addresses. When bit addresses are used, use addresses that are
consecutive to word units.
The Customize function modifies the n:1 (multi-link) connection’s communica-
tion method to make it more efficient. To perform GLC<-->PLC communication
efficiently, the user should first determine whether they wish to have Operation or
Display priority set for the GLC. Based on this, the communication response
speed can be upgraded. (However, this also depends on the complexity of the
screen information displayed.)
