FL-net Unit Support Software Ver. 1.6 Appendix F
Connecting the Computer to the PLC
This section explains how to connect to the PLC the computer in which the FL-net Unit Support Software is
installed. The cables used depend on the type of connection to the PLC. When connecting the computer to the
PLC, refer to the connection examples provided in this section.
Communications Settings
The following table provides the settings for the communications port used for the FL-net Unit Support Soft-
ware (i.e., the set values used during operation).
Note (1) The FL-net Unit Support Software cannot be connected online at the same time as CX-Programmer
or CX-Net. The following error message will be displayed if online connection is attempted when ei-
ther of these applications is online.
(2) The above specifications are automatically set and used internally by the FL-net Unit Support Soft-
ware when it connects through the serial port of the computer.
(3) By setting the CS/CJ CPU Unit's DIP switch to “Auto-detect Programming Device,” the connection
can be made easily and with no need to pay attention to the details of the above communications
settings. For details, refer to the
CS Series Programmable Controllers Operation Manual (W339) or
CJ Series Programmable Controllers Operation Manual (W393).
(4) These settings do not depend on the serial port settings in the operating system, and there is no
need to change the Windows settings.
(5) If the communications settings are all set manually, the settings must be made in the PLC Setup.
For details, refer to the CS Series Programmable Controllers Operation Manual (W339) or CJ Series
Programmable Controllers Operation Manual (W393)
