6-1
Overview of Smart Functions
This section gives an overview of the smart functions of the CompoNet Smart-
Slice system.
6-2
Registration Table
You can use the DIP switch on the CompoNet Communications Unit to record
the connected SmartSlice I/O Units in a table. The table tells the sequence
and I/O capacity of each SmartSlice I/O Unit.
When the power is subsequently turned ON, the CompoNet Communications
Unit automatically compares the information in the Registration Table with the
connected SmartSlice I/O Units.
6-2-1
Making a Registration Table
Function Overview
Method
Registration
Table
The Registration Table contains information
on the SmartSlice I/O Units in the Smart-
Slice I/O Terminal.
DIP switch
Backup Function You can read the parameter settings from all
SmartSlice I/O Units in the SmartSlice I/O
Terminal and save them.
DIP switch
Automatic
Restore Function
You can automatically restore the parameter
settings that you backed up in the Compo-
Net Communications Unit.
DIP switch
Replacing Units
Online
You can replace a SmartSlice I/O Unit with-
out turning OFF the power supply.
---
Automatic Baud
Rate Recogni-
tion
The CompoNet Communications Unit auto-
matically uses the same baud rate as the
CompoNet Master Unit.
---
Software Setting
of I/O Allocations
You can set Dummy Units (SmartSlice I/O
Units that are not installed at this time) in a
Software Setting Table. The settings include
the node address and I/O configuration
information.
DIP switch
(You use the CX-
Integrator to make,
download, and clear
the Software Set-
ting Table.)
Unit Conduction
Time Monitor
The system calculates and records the time
that the internal power supply in the Unit is
ON in increments of 0.1-hour.
CX-Integrator or
explicit messages
Unit Comments
You can set a comment (for example, a
name) for each SmartSlice I/O Unit.
CX-Integrator or
explicit messages
Network Com-
munications
Error History
Monitor
The system records the last four errors in
communications with the CompoNet net-
work.
CX-Integrator or
explicit messages
I/O Communica-
tions Error His-
tory Monitor
The system records the last 64 errors in
communications between the CompoNet
Communications Unit and the SmartSlice
I/O Units.
CX-Integrator or
explicit messages
Last Mainte-
nance Date
You can record the last date you did mainte-
nance.
CX-Integrator or
explicit messages
• Before making the Registration Table, make sure that all SmartSlice I/O Units
are participating in communications. The TS indicators must be lit in green.
• Before making the Registration Table, make sure that pin 2 (I/O) on the DIP
switch is OFF (Automatic I/O Allocation Mode). You cannot make the Registra-
tion Table if pin 2 is ON (Software I/O Allocation Mode).
Precaution for
Correct Usage
