Master Remote I/O Communications
Remote I/O communications are used to automatically transfer data between slaves and the CPU Unit
without any special programming in the CPU Unit under which the Master Unit is mounted.

Master Communications
Note
A CJ-series DeviceNet Unit can function as either a master or slave in remote I/O communi-
cations and it can even function as both a master and a slave at the same time. Change
*_Sw1MstrEnblCmd
(Master Enable Switch) to TRUE to set the CJ-series DeviceNet Unit to
function as a master. Once master communications are enabled, the Unit will continue to per-
form master communications regardless of whether the power is turned OFF and back ON
again.
Change
*_Sw1MstrDsblCmd
(Master Disable Switch) to TRUE to stop master communica-
tions. Master communications are the focus of this section.
In the following descriptions, a CJ-series DeviceNet Unit set to function as a master is
referred to as a "Master Unit" and a CJ-series DeviceNet Unit set to function as a slave is
referred to as a "Slave Unit".
All slaves are allocated in the I/O memory area in the NJ-series CPU Unit to which the Master Unit is
mounted. They are allocated using one of the following methods:
1) Fixed allocations
2) User-set allocations
Note
With either fixed or user-set allocations, to access the area where each slave is allocated from
the user program, a user-defined variable that specifies the AT specification of that area needs
to be defined.
