Purpose
This function provides keeping I/O map, when number of sensor change by customer option,
sensing point degrees and so on.
Details of functions
E3NW-ECT can be set dummy sensor, so I/O map keep by using dummy sensor setting.
The settings are made using the SDO communication.
The target index is 3004 hex.

Application
There are two modes for data refreshing with PDO communications. Select the mode based on the
number of input data to assign for PDO communications and the refresh cycle.*
* In this section, the refresh cycle applies to data in the Sensor Communication Unit. This is not the refresh
cycle for data between the Sensor Communication Unit and the master.
•
Normal Mode
In Normal Mode, the assigned inputs may not be refreshed every cycle, but you can assign a
large amount of input data.
•
