Method 2: Transferring to a PLC in the Same Network as the Directly
Connected PLC (FINS Local Routing Table Only)
When a PLC is connected directly by serial communications, the routing tables can be
transferred to each PLC in the same network as the directly connected PLC. (See
notes 1 and 2.)
The routing tables cannot be transferred to another network level.
Note 1: Use
CX-Integrator version 2.1 or higher.
Note 2: Use one of the following PLC models as the PLC directly connected by serial
communications.
•
A CS/CJ-series CPU Unit with unit version 4.0 or later
Computer (CX-Integrator)
CS/CJ-series
PLC1 (See note.)
Connect online with
network address = 0, and
node address = 0.

Can be transferred to other
PLCs in the network.
Note: Can be transferred even if PLC1

Note
When connecting online through Ethernet, the FINS network routing table cannot be
set or transferred if there is even one node in the network that does not automatically
generate an Ethernet IP address from the FINS node address. Be sure that all of the
nodes will automatically generate IP addresses when using Ethernet.
3-1-6 Operating Procedures Prior to Routing Table Transfer
This section describes the operating procedures necessary to create the routing
tables for the first time up to the point where the files are transferred to the PLCs.
Note When constructing the network, set FINS local routing tables in all nodes (CPU Units)
that will participate in the network.
