Obtaining I/O Size Information from the Master Scan List
When connecting the CX-Integrator to a network that is already operating, for example
using OMRON Master Units with fixed allocation, the slave I/O size can be obtained
from the master scan list for use in setting.
However, this is possible only with OMRON masters. Also, the slave I/O size cannot be
obtained from the slave function of the CS1W-DRM21(-V1) or CJ1W-DRM21.
Use the following procedure to obtain the I/O size from a master scan list.
1. Select the desired slave, then select
Component - Property .
2. Click the I/O Information Tab.
3. Click the Get I/O Size from the Scanlist Button.
Parameter Auto Update when I/O Size Changed
The function to automatically update the I/O size registered on the master scan list
when the I/O size is changed can be switched ON or OFF.
To automatically update the I/O size registered on the master scan list, select
Tools -
DeviceNet tool - Parameter Auto Update When I/O Size Changed .
When this function is enabled, the mark will be displayed in the menu. The default
is set to not automatically update.
Note If the function to automatically update the I/O size is enabled and there is no EDS file,
some operations will cause the I/O size in the master scan list to be updated to zero.
For this reason, the function to automatically update the I/O size should normally be
disabled.
