TRANSMISSION DATA DESCRIPTIONS

Use the DIP SW located at the side of the module to specify module allocation.

1 module is equivalent to 1 I/O module with 16 words analog input and 16 words analog output. Max. 8 modules (128 words

input, 128 words output) transmission is available. This module seems as if max. 8 I/O modules are mounted to 8 slots via

Modbus/TCP.

The input of the module is processed as follows.

[Modbus Communication] --> [R3-GE1 Module] --> [R3 Base] --> [R3 Communication Module]

In responding to the input, the output (Holding Register) command becomes valid via Modbus/TCP communication, and the

input (Input Register) command is valid in the output.

Note: Do not mount any modules in the slots which are occupied by virtual modules. If a real I/O module is mounted in the slot,

an internal bus error occurs. Max. 16 real I/O modules and virtual modules are available. The interface module can not read the

data for more than 16 modules.

Real I/O modules are mounted on Slots No. 1 and 2, however, the network module (R3-NC3) recognizes that each of Slots No. 1 to 5 is

occupied. That is, R3-NC3 recognizes R3-SV4 mounted on Slot No.1 as it is and recognizes R3-GE1 mounted on Slot No.2 as divided into

four modules and occupying Slots No. 2 to 5.
