Through Function
CAUTION
•
Precautions when using the through function
The system should be set up so that the interval for communication
retries in the FP series software (FPWIN GR or NPST-GR) (A) is larger
than that of the GT01 COM. port (B), meaning (A) > (B). If the system
is set up so that A = B or A < B, the through function will not work
properly.
•
Restrictions on COM. port connections
When connecting the GT01 to the COM port of a PLC, a separate
external DC 5 V power supply must be provided. Be sure to
remember this.
•
An FP Programmer II cannot be connected to the tool port.
