The setting items and precautions are shown below for communicating GT SoftGOT1000 to the PLC CPU via the Ethernet module (A series). This section describes the system configuration to monitor the host as shown below. When monitoring other stations, follow the same procedure as the host.

Precautions for setting items

The N/W No. and PLC No. to be specified for Ethernet connection to the E71 should be those set as desired on GT Designer2. Refer to the following for how to set the N/W No., PLC No./PC No., IP address and port No. of the Ethernet module and GT SoftGOT1000.

This section (7)

The following shows the procedure for performing communications via E71.

(1) Before setting

(a) Monitoring precautions

The connection target cannot be monitored via MELSECTNET/10 or MELSECNET/H.

(b) Communication precautions

• Only communications within the same segment can be monitored. No communications via a router or gateway can be monitored.

• A connection of multiple pieces of network equipment (including GT SoftGOT1000) to a segment may increase the network load and slow down the communication between the GT SoftGOT1000 and the PLC. Communication efficiency may be improved by using one or more of the following methods:

• Use a switching hub

• Use a high-speed 100BASE-TX (100Mbps)

• Reduce the number of monitoring points of the GT SoftGOT1000
