Configuring the Slave Devices
Section 3-3
Example
The Parameter tab of the CJ1W-PRT21 is shown in the figure below. It lists
the common parameters for the CJ1W-PRT21.
In the figure above, the parameter captions are listed in the left column and
the options can be set in the right column. In order to change settings, double-
click the required parameter row with the left mouse button. Depending on the
parameter type, either a drop-down lists will become available for selection or
a value can be entered.
Example
In the figure above, the parameter setting allowing the user to define the tar-
get location of the output data in the PLC memory has been selected.
Note
Readable captions and/or convenient selection items are not always provided
with the parameters. Depending on the slave device and the GSD file imple-
mentation, setting the parameter values may require the help of the user doc-
umentation for that slave.

Control command message (see section
3-6-3 Transmitting Global-Control
Commands
), to address a specific group of slaves, or all slaves. To set a
slave device’s group address, perform the following steps.
