MG10A-P1 / MG10A-P2
Communication modes
Th ere are three modes each with a diff erent header output.
Mode 1: Normal data output
Header consisting of 2 bytes (unit channel
number)
[Example] “00−09.9999”
Mode 2: Data output with measuring mode information
added
Header consisting of 4 bytes
(unit channel mode + unit)
[Example] “00NM−09.9999”
Mode 3: Data output with measuring mode and Go/No Go
judgment result information added
Header consisting of 5 bytes (unit channel
mode + unit + comparator judgment value)
[Example] “00NMG−09.9999”
6-1-4. Link Connection
Formats used during link connection
Th e data is output in the specifi ed communication format (see
section 6-1-3) beginning from the highest order unit regardless
of the unit numbers which have been set.
Th
e highest order unit is the unit connected to the host unit (PC
or PLC), and the lower order units are ranked according to the
link connection order from the highest order unit.
• Th
e data of each unit is separated by delimiters, and output.
• No commands are used specifi cally for link connections.
• When extending the link cable (LZ61), use a cable length of
10 m or less.
Note
When using a link connection, be sure to use all the same
communication settings (except for the RS-232C communication
setup switch SW1 master setting) and RS-TRG mode (high-
speed/low-speed) parameter settings. Normal communications
are impossible when the settings for each unit diff er.
