1. Introduction
This operation manual describes the installation, construction of screens and operation method of the I/O
configurator for NFC. The SMC wireless system I/O Configurator for NFC can be used to check the parameter
setting of the wireless unit and the contents and status of the constructed wireless system, using an NFC
reader/writer and a PC.
There are two types of settable parameters with the I/O Configurator: the parameters which can be read or
written when no power is supplied to the product and the parameters which can be read or written only
when the power is supplied to the product.
The connection details of the I/O Configurator for NFC and the wireless unit is shown in the below figure.
※One PC will recognize one NFC reader / writer per application setting.
Do not connect multiple NFC readers / writers to a PC.
Connection details of the I/O Configurator for NFC and the wireless unit
Before the wireless system can be used, it is necessary to pair each slave with its master using the
I/O configurator for NFC.
The following sections of this document should be read before using the I/O configurator for NFC;

: About the communication timing
The NFC communication is not accessed all the time. Therefore, it is necessary to update the contents displayed on
the screen by clicking the "Refresh button" when reading the parameters. The parameters changed are valid after
re-supplying the power supply or by pressing the reset button in the I/O Configurator screen. As the parameter
setting requires time for settlement, do not turn off the power supply for 2 seconds.
: Establishing communication after changing units
As the settings between the wireless master unit and the wireless slave unit are different, it is necessary to update the
displayed parameter by clicking the "Refresh button" on the screen of the I/O Configurator for NFC after changing the
unit in which the parameter is set.

without interference from another network. The window for Slave registration consists of Registered slaves,
Save reg. info., Free slaves, Pairing and Dummy.
: Registration of slaves needs to be performed with the power supplied. Refer to 5. Pairing of wireless unit (Page 69) for the registration
procedure.

(5) Dummy slave
The dummy slave can register a "Dummy area" in the I/O map. A wireless slave unit can be added without
changing the I/O map by registering the wireless slave unit to the "Dummy area" even after system
construction.
The wireless slave unit allocation order to the I/O map is from smallest channel to largest channel
registered by the wireless channel which has been set during slave unit registration.
At the time, the wireless channel in which no wireless slave unit is registered will be ignored.
When adding new wireless slave unit, it may be required to change the I/O map depending on the wireless
channel number.
The dummy slave can be registered only with the wireless master unit.

: Refer to 5.2 Registration of dummy slave (page 74) for details and registration of dummy slaves.
•To reserve the dummy slave registration, it is necessary to set the number of inputs/outputs.
If a slave unit with inputs/outputs which are different from the set numbers is registered, the I/O
map should be changed.
