1. OVERVIEW
This User's Manual describes the specifications, part names, settings
and others of the AJ65BT-RPI-10A/10B type CC-Link system space
optical repeater module (hereafter abbreviated to the AJ65BT-RPI-
10A/10B) used in a CC-Link system.
1.1 Features
The AJ65BT-RPI-10A/10B is a module used to expand the CC-Link
system.
By using the AJ65BT-RPI-10A and AJ65BT-RPI-10B in combination,
infrared space transmission, increased transmission distance and T-
junction wiring can be achieved in a CC-Link system (at the
transmission speed of 2.5Mbps, 625kbps or 156kbps only).
Also, the optical axis adjustment can be made easily because the light
receiving status of the module can be transmitted to the master station.
(1) Infrared space transmission
Using these modules enables infrared space transmission of 0 to
100m (0 to 327.87ft.).
This makes a CC-Link system usable in places where cabling is
difficult.
[Places where cabling is difficult]
• Place where a movable range is wide
• Place where the number of movable times is large and cables
may be broken due to fatigue
• Place where you want to minimize the number of movable parts,
e.g. cable bearers, for dust proof purpose (such as a clean
room)

(2) Increased transmission distance
Using these modules increases the transmission distance of a CC-
Link system.
Also, using multiple sets of these modules allows the transmission
distance to be increased by up to two stages.
(3) T-junction wiring enabled in CC-Link system
T-junction wiring can be performed by arrangement of these
modules between the modules of a CC-Link system.
(4) Communication status of the module can be monitored
The light receiving status of the module can be monitored
(imported to the master station) by setting the station numbers to
these modules and also making the remote I/O station-equivalent
parameter setting in the master station.
Also, the imported receiving status of the mating module can be
indicated by the LEDs of the own module using the sequence
program of the master station, ensuring ease of fine adjustment of
the optical axes.
POINT
Station number and parameter settings are not needed when these modules are
used as repeaters only, i.e. the light receiving status is not monitored (monitor
function is not used).
*2 Though omitted here, another remote station may be connected between repeaters.
