22-4
SmartAXIS Touch User's Manual
3.1 Overview
DM Link Communication reads and writes value to external devices using the Touch's dedicated DM Link memory. The
device type of dedicated DM Link memory is DM.
This method uses a dedicated IDEC protocol, so a communication program is required in the external device.
●
Communication Methods
There are two basic types of DM Link Communication. 1:1 Communication, where the Touch is connected to an
external device; and 1:N Communication, where multiple Touch are connected to an external device.
■
1:1 Communication
The external device is connected to a single Touch.
The Event Transmission function from the Touch can be used with 1:1 communication.
The Event Transmission function is a function that works as follows. When value in the dedicated DM Link memory of
the Touch is changed, the data is transmitted from the Touch to the external device.
