Setting Data Links
Section 5-2
3. A data link mode can be set in a data link startup node only. The data link
mode setting is determined by the data link mode of the startup node even
if the data link mode settings of the nodes participating in the data links are
different from the settings in the startup node.
4. In manual setting, a data link table must be set in the data link startup node
and in automatic setting, automatic data link setting parameters must be
set in the data link startup node. Data links will not be started unless the
settings are correct.
5. Always check whether the data link settings for all startup nodes in the cor-
responding network are correct to prevent starting up using with incorrect
data link modes and parameters. Make sure that both automatic setting
and manual setting modes are not used together in the same network and
that automatic settings with different parameters are not used.

Manual Setting
Transfer the data link tables that were created on the Support Software to the
Controller Link Unit and the Controller Link Support Board at all node partici-
pating in the data links.
Transferring from a Programming Device
Note
1. Data link tables cannot be set in the Controller Link Support Board using
the CX-Net in the CX-Programmer. Use the CLK Data Link Setting Utility
in FinsGateway or the Controller Link Support Software (version 2.00 or
higher).
2. Refer to the
Controller Link Support Software Operation Manual
(W369) or
the
CX-Net Operation Manual
for actual setting procedures.
3. When transferring the data link tables to a Controller Link Unit for a CV-
series PC, set the System Protect Keyswitch on the CPU Unit to “NOR-
MAL.” Otherwise, data link tables cannot be written normally.
