(1) Termination treatment of vertical section is needed.
(2) In case that the distance is far between stations, it is possible to extend the segment through

repeater(max. 9 repeater, 10 segment), available to connect 32 stations per segment(include
repeater), max. 126 stations. (Repeater does not have station no.) The extended segment

having no station is available.
(3) Shield shall be connected to the housing of connector.
(4) Use the special connector having the inductor inside.
(5) Spur Line is not allowed to use.
(6) If the ground potential difference between stations is big, a great amount of current may flow

through the shield. In this case, install the cable to make the ground potential difference equal

separately. For high speed more than 1.5Mbps, special cares should be taken.
(7) In case of 12Mbps, keep the distance more than 1m between stations.

5) Termination treatment

3.4 Test Operation

Chapter 3 Installation and Test Operation

Terminal resistance switch of Pnet cable shall be On. If the switch is not On, communication errors may
occur. Check LED operation status if normal with power on after communication cable is connected. If
normal, download the applicable program to PLC via SOFTMASTER so to execute the program.

3.4.1 Precautions for system configuration

1) Station No. of each slave shall be surely different from each other including this module. If connected
with the repeated station No., communication error may occur, leading to communication trouble.
High-speed link station No. of all stations also shall be different from each other to use High-speed
link service.

2) Use the communication cable as specified only. If not, serious error may occur to communication.

3) Check communication cable if disconnected or shorted prior to installation.

4) Tighten up communication cable connector until connected firmly. If cable connection is unstable, serious
error may occur to communication.

5) If remote communication cable is connected, keep the cable far away from power line or inductive noise.

6) Since the coaxial cable is not flexible, it is to be diverged min. 30cm away from the connector in
communication module. If the cable is bent at a right angle or transformed compulsorily, cable
disconnection or connector damage in communication module will be caused.

7) If LED operation is abnormal, refer to Chapter 10 Troubleshooting to check for causes and take actions
against. Contact service center if the error is as before.

1) CPU type: 2MLI, 2MLK, 2MLR system common

(2) P2P communication is available with 2MLL-PMEB only that supports PROFIBUS DPv1.

Chapter 5 Communication Program

There is one communication function available in Pnet I/F module as described below.

5.1.1 Type of communication program

(1) High-speed link

High-speed link as a communication method between ML200 PLC communication module and slave
module is used to exchange data or information with destination station periodically for a specific time,
through which the changed data of self station or the destination station can be referred to periodically
for efficient application to the operation system and execution of communication is available only with
simple parameters setting.
How to set parameter is, download the configuration data to the communication module by means of
“Pnet configuration tool. And then upload the downloaded file in the SoftMaster. And then, specify the
self station area and destination station area for sending/receiving in the high speed link parameter.
Download the specified parameters and let the link enabled to execute High-speed link communication.
Data size is available from the min. 1 byte (16 points) to 244 bytes for the communication,
communication period from the min. 20 ms up to 10 sec. based on the communication details. It is easy
to use because communication with destination station is available only through simple parameters
setting. And it is also useful for periodic process of lots of data at a time thanks to high processing
speed of the internal data.

(2) P2P

P2P is the communication method between ML200 PLC communication module and slave module. It
can be used to read/write the data or information of slave at the point in time.
It can be effectively used to exchange the status information of other station or handle the alarm by
simple parameter settings.
How to set the parameter is as below,

1) In P2P parameter of SoftMaster, select data sending direction or alarm handling function.

2) Set slave’s station number and data address, ML200 PLC communication module address,
condition flag.

3) Download the P2P parameter and enable the link. Then P2P communication will be start.
Maximum 244 bytes sending and receiving data are available. It operates by condition flag that makes
it useful when user handle the temporary data.

(3) Configuration tool
In order to use a Pnet I/F module, you have to configure the system by ‘SyCon’ and ‘N

confugurator’ configuration tool and then download it to the Pnet I/F module

7.4.3 Bus parameter

In this chapter, we will find out how to configure the network bus parameter of these. Network
bus parameter can simply change the communication speed, or adjust the timing for
communication parameter precisely.
Generally, default value is used without change in the communication parameter timing.
Therefore, this manual describes how to change the communication speed, and more details
can be found from PROFIBUS DP specification or software manual with careful consideration.

Since master only has the authority to configure the network bus parameter, you should
choose master from topology to activate the “Bus Parameters” item from the “Configuration”
menu. Select the activated “Bus Parameters” item to activate the bus parameter settings tab
as shown below.

[Figure 7.4.9] bus parameter settings tab

If you simply select PROFIBUS DP communication speed (Baud-rate) here, then the selected
bus parameter values will be applied.
