Also, when using the board in the MELSECNET/10 network system, refer to "For QnA/Q4AR Corresponding MELSECNET/10 network system reference manual".

  • Page 26: Features

    1 OVERVIEW MELSEC POINT (1) For MELSECNET/H, select QCPUs, RCPUs, and Q compatible network modules. (2) If QnACPU or ACPU are included in the same network, select MELSECNET/10 mode which is compatible with MELSECNET/10. (3) All of network modules and MELSECNET/H boards within the same network must be set to the same mode (network type) 1: MELSECNET/H mode, MELSECNET/H Extended mode and MELSECNET/10 mode are available.
  • Page 27 1 OVERVIEW MELSEC (4) Compatible with multiple CPU systems. By using station designations of logical station No. on the MNETH utility, MELSECNET/H board is capable of communicating with a multiple CPU system. (5) Compatible with redundant CPU systems. Only by specifying whether the destination is a control or standby station using the user program, access is simply made without considering the current operating system state of the redundant CPU system.
  • Page 28 1 OVERVIEW MELSEC (9) External power supply allows continuous network communication even during power-off of personal computer. (Function of the Q80BD-J71LP21S-25) Since power is supplied externally, the Q80BD-J71LP21S-25 can continue network communication (baton passing) even if a personal computer is powered off and data link cannot be performed.
