Setting items for segment type are NONE(no setting), CONST(fixed data area) and
ARRAY(variable data area). CONST is used to declare & input commands and
fixed data to be used in communication frame, and ARRAY is used to input & save
data required for mutual communication. ARRAY type shall be set always in byte
unit only.
Ex.1) %MB0, %QB0.0.0 (

Ex.2) %MX0, %MW0, %MD0, %QX0.0.0, %QW0.0.0 (

)
Field to input & declare commands and fixed data to be used in communication
frame. ASCII input is within 10 characters and HEX input is within 20 characters
per segment. For the exceeding number, set the same type of segments and then
input continuously.
Ex.1)
10RSB06%MW10006
If segment is defined to ARRAY type, its related area shall be set in byte even
though word type of data is declared in CONST type.
Ex.2)
10RSB06%MW10006 is execution frame of reading 6-word data via
dedicated protocol communication from %MW100 in 16 slave station. At
this time, saving area to save the read data shall be set to ARRAY with its
size set to 6 words, namely, 12 byte.
Radio button to select input type of command with 2 types of HEX & ASCII.
Ex.1)
ASCII: 1 0 R S B 0 6 % M W 1 0 0
Ex.2)
HEX : 31 30 52 53 42 30 36 25 57 44 31 30 30
Checking item to decide transmission of data by ASCII converting in transmission
frame or receiving of data by HEX converting in receiving frame if set to
ARRAY(variable data area).
If set to ARRAY(variable data area), area size is set in byte unit. Unit is byte.
