1.1 Introduction
This User Manual describes the Ethernet RAPIEnet I/F module (hereinafter, RAPIEnet I/F Module) for the exclusive use on
dual port in the XGT PLC system network. The RAPIEnet I/F Module carries out the communication between the PLCs in the
XGT series on the basis of Ethernet communication, and provides two Ethernet ports which can be configured in line (daisy
chain) and ring structure, enabling construction of network which is more flexible than conventional star-type PLC communication
module. The RAPIEnet I/F Module can be classified into 2 electrical ports (10/100BASE-TX), 2 optical ports (100BASE-FX), and
hybrid (10/100BASE-TX, 100BASE-FX) according to the media type. The Module is an interface module for data transmission
between PLCs using these ports.
To create a program, refer to the following manuals together.
