Overview of the Sensor Communications Unit with CompoNet Communications
Overview
A Digital Sensor Communications Unit with CompoNet Communications is used to output
ON/OFF data from multiple Sensor Amplifier Units, monitor detection levels, write
parameters, and perform operations via CompoNet.
ON/OFF outputs can be monitored with remote I/O communications. You can also read
and write parameter with explicit messages.
You can register Dummy Sensors so that you do not need to change the I/O assignments
even if the number of Sensor Amplifier Units changes. Explicit messages are also used to
register Dummy Sensors.
When using this Digital Sensor Communications Unit, also refer to the following manuals:
CompoNet Master Units Operation Manual (Cat. No. W456), CRT1-series CompoNet
Slave Units and Repeater Unit Operation Manual (Cat. No. W457), and
CJ1W-CRM21 CJ-series CompoNet Master Units Operation Manual for NJ-series CPU
Unit (Cat. No. W493)
