1.6 Restrictions Relating to Communication Conditions
and Functions
1.6.1 Precautions When Using the FP2 CPU Unit
If the codes „MC, MD, MG“ for monitor commands are used among the commands sent from the host
computer, commands being sent from multiple computers will prevent data from being read and written
correctly.
Note:
If monitor commands are sent from multiple computers, registered data will overwrite previously
registered data, starting from the latest item, so that different data will end up being monitored.
Key Point:
-
Monitor commands are used to execute monitoring after the contacts and data to be monitored have
been registered on the PLC side.
-
If using the FP2SH CPU unit, the above restrictions apply for up to 10 connections.
