Description
An FPGA module with the communication function. The main module can be used alone. One extension module can
be connected to a main module.
A station that controls the entire network. This station can perform cyclic transmission and transient transmission
with all stations.
Only one master station can be used in a network.
Parameters to set the FPGA module functions except the FPGA operation
A filter function that selects whether to send cyclic data of multicast mode received by the own station to the
subsequent stations.
Setting parameters for this function is not required because the master station automatically sets the parameters
according to the system configuration.
A communication mode used to send cyclic data to multiple stations
Signed number representations. A method where a predetermined bias value is subtracted.
Memory in an FPGA module for storing data such as setting values and monitored values
A station that exchanges I/O signals (bit data) and I/O data (word data) with another station by cyclic transmission.
This station can perform transient transmission.
A station reserved for future use. This station is not actually connected, but counted as a connected station.
A connection example of the user circuit and the standard circuits. The sample circuit is incorporated in the FPGA
module of factory default.
An abbreviation for Seamless Message Protocol. This protocol is used for Ethernet.
A circuit block that controls the external hardware (digital I/O circuits, analog circuits) of the FPGA. The standard
circuit is provided by Mitsubishi Electric Corporation and the circuit change by users is not required.
A function of communication with another station, which is used when requested by a dedicated instruction or an
engineering tool
A CC-Link IE TSN Class B switching hub authorized by the CC-Link Partner Association
A circuit block that is designed by a user according to the application.
A hardware description language (HDL) used to describe digital circuits
