OMMUNICATION
Maintenance Communication via Ethernet Port
Applicable SmartAXIS
Network devices such as computers or IDEC operator interfaces can communicate with SmartAXIS via Ethernet. External devices
on the network can monitor or change the device values and download or upload user programs.
It is possible to use the maintenance communication server and other communications simultaneously by assigning a separate
communication function such as a maintenance communication server or Modbus TCP communication to each of the three
connections on the SmartAXIS.
