3.7 Address Configuration
The RCON address configuration is the same for all driver units regardless of field network type.
The addresses occupied by the network consist of eight words of the fixed domains, data
domains that vary depending on the operation mode and number of axes and the data domains
for the EC connection unit. Each operation mode and occupied data region is as follows.
Direct numerical control mode, simple direct mode and positioner 1~3 and 5 modes can be
mixed for use and the model for each axis can be selected arbitrarily.
It is not available to select an operation mode in the EC connection unit.
