9.2.14Link special register (SW)
(1) Definition
The link special register (SW) is used to store communication status data and error data of intelligent function
modules, such as CC-Link IE Controller Network modules and MELSECNET/H network modules.
Because the data link information is stored as numeric data, error locations and causes can be checked by
monitoring the link special register.
(2) Number of link special register points
The points for the link special register depends on the CPU module.
Remark
For details of the link special register, refer to the manual for each intelligent function module that has the link special
register.
