Remote I/O Mode 2 (Number of Occupied Bytes: 12)
In this operation method, EtherNet/IP communications is used to mimic the operation of hardware PIO (24V
I/O).
Set the position data using the teaching tools.
The number of operable positions varies depending on the parameter No. 25 “PIO Pattern” setting.
This mode is the same as the remote I/O mode, but the current-position read function and
command-current read function are also available.
The features of each PIO pattern are shown below. (Refer to operation manual for the controller main body
for more information)

0
Positioning mode 64 positioning points and two zone output points are available.
1
Teaching mode
64 positioning points and one zone output point are available.
Positioning operation and jog operation are supported.
The current position can be written to a specified position.
2
256-point mode
256 positioning points and one zone output point are available.
3
512-point mode
512 positioning points are available. There are no zone outputs.
4
Electromagnetic
valve mode 1
7 positioning points and two zone output points are available.
The direct operation command is available for each position No.
A position complete signal is output for each position number.
5
Electromagnetic
valve mode 2
3 positioning points and two zone output points are available.
The actuator is operated by specifying forward, backward and
intermediate position commands.
A position complete signal is output separately for the front end, rear
end and intermediate position.
The robot cylinder's effective main functions that can be controlled using this mode, are as shown in the
following table.
