Communi-
cation
RS-485 communications can be performed by connecting to a computer equipped with an RS-485 interface.
Programs, PID, various parameters (SET UP, PARA, events) and other data can be saved or loaded using
memory card (optional).
Memory card (optional)
• No. of bytes per program is 26 + (5 X No. of segments) + (5 X No. of sub-functions)
• No. of bytes per parameters is as specified below.
Setup data : 217 bytes
Variable parameter : 257 bytes
PID par Fixed command control data : 291 bytes
Event configuration data : 209 bytes
