*1 One of the following Communication Boards is required:
C200HW-COM02/COM04/COM05/COM06-EV1.
*2 A CPM1-CIF01 adapter is required.
*3 Use a CPM2C-CN111 or CS1W-CN114/118 Connecting Cable, CPM1-CIF01
RS-232C Adapter, or CPM1-CIF11 RS-422A Adapter to connect.
*4 A CQM1H-SCB41 Serial Communications Board is required.
*5 CPU Units of CVM1/CV-series PCs without the suffix -EV

cannot be
connected.
Reference: CS/CJ-series CPU Unit cannot be connected with the 1:1 connection NT link
method. Use the 1:N connection NT link method (standard or high-speed)
instead of making the 1:1 connection. For details, refer to Using the 1:N NT Link
(page 55) or Using the High-speed 1:N NT Link (page 60).
Settings at The Host
The setting methods for each Unit are as follows:
Connecting to a C-series C200HS, C200HX/HG/HE(-Z)E, CPM1, CPM2A,
CPM2C, CQM1, CQM1H, or SRM1
PC Setup Settings
Write the PC Setup (in the DM Area) settings directly from a Programming De-
vice (e.g., SYSMAC Support Software) in accordance with the host model and
port.

For details on operations relating to the PC Setup, refer to the manual for the PC
that is used.
Connecting to a CPM2C
The CPM2C PCs do not have the same kind of port connectors found on CS/CJ-
series PCs. The CPM2C’s communication port handles both RS-232C and pe-
ripheral port connections, which are divided internally. Therefore, when using
the CPM2C, it is necessary to select RS-232C or peripheral port connections,
according to the kind of cable and port (on the cable) used, as shown in the fol-
lowing table. Refer to the CPM2C Operation Manual for more details.
