iii) Click on “Register” to register the node with the specified node
address. (If a node address registered to another node has been spe-
cified, the other node’s information will be overwritten.)
Select the node address of a registered Slave
that is the same model as the new Slave.
Change just the node address and click on “Register.”
b) Registration Method 2: Inputting Data
Use the following method to register a Slave when the Slave’s vendor
code, device type, product code, output size, and input size are known in
advance. (Data can’t be input into rows that are displayed in gray.)
i) Input the node address of the Slave in the “Node Address” input area.
ii) Select the manufacturer of the Slave in the right column of “Vendor”
input area. The corresponding vendor code will appear automatically
in the left column of the “Vendor” input area.
If the manufacturer isn’t listed, select “Other Vendor” in the right col-
umn and input the manufacturer’s vendor code manually. (A Slave
can’t be registered with a vendor code of 0.)
iii) Select the device type in the right column of “Device Type” input area.
The corresponding code will appear automatically in the left column
of the “Device Type” input area.
If the desired device type isn’t listed, select “Other Device” in the right
column and input the device type code manually.
iv) When an OMRON Slave is being registered, select the Slave’s model
number from the right column of “Product Code” input area. The cor-
responding product code will appear automatically in the left column
of the input area.
When another company’s Slave or an unlisted OMRON Slave is
being registered, select “Other” from the right column of “Product
Code” input area and input the product code manually.
(When another company’s vendor code is input, the product code is
automatically set to “Other.”)
v) Input the number of output bytes and input bytes occupied by the
Slave in the “OUT Size” and “IN Size” input areas. The setting range
for the number of bytes is 0 to 64, and one of the OUT Size and IN
Size settings must be non-zero.
(Be sure to set the number of I/O bytes, not the number of I/O words.)
