*1 To use as word address, the bit number (last digit) must be 0.
*2 To use as word address, must be multiple of 16.
*3 When the bit write operation is performed, the Target Machine reads the PLC’s
corresponding word address and turns a bit ON, then send back to PLC. Do not write to the
word address from the ladder program in the middle of this operation.
*4 You can define a bit address by adding a colon followed by the bit position (0~15) at the end
of the word. (e.g. D0000:15)
*5 You can define a bit address by adding a colon followed by the bit position (0~F) at the end
of the word. (e.g. W0000:F)

3 Consecutive Device Addresses
The following table lists the maximum number of consecutive addresses and the gap span (the
maximum gap span between PLC device addresses that are used as consecutive device addresses)
that be read by each PLC. Refer to these tables to utilize Block Transfer.
•To speed up data communication, use consecutive device addresses on
the same panel screen.
•The following situations increase the number of times that the device is
read, and reduces the data communication speed between the target
machine and the PLC:
•when the number of consecutive addresses exceeds the maximum
•when an address is designated for division
•when different device types are used

Prior to the target machine starting communciation with a Melsec-Q PLC, the MNET/10H
Ethernet settings must be set in the PLC's ladder logic software. The setting values are as shown
below.

5 I/O Manager Configuration
The driver and protocol, which enable communication between the target machine and the PLC,
depends on the PLC type.
For information on how to display the [New Driver Interface] dialog box,
see the online help.

9
Mitsubishi Electric Melsec-Q Ethernet (UDP) Driver
6 Driver Configuration
Use the [Driver Configuration] dialog box to define communication settings on the target
machine.
For information on how to display the [Driver Configuration] dialog box,
see the online help.
Command Time Interval
Not applicable.
Timeout
Defines the length of time the target machine waits for a communication packet before it retries
communication or outputs an error. (1-180)
UDP Retry Count
Defines the number of times the target machine resends a packet before it outputs an error. (0-
255)
UDP Port No.
Enter a value to identify on the target machine, the port number used for UDP communication.
(1024-65535)

10

7 Protocol Configuration
To set up details about the communication process between the target machine and the PLC, use
the [Protocol Configuration] dialog box.
For information on how to display the [Protocol Configuration] dialog box,
see the online help.
Destination IP Address
Specifies the Destination IP address (PLC), devided 32 bits into 4 parts, each part is consisted of
8 bits and devided by dots. Enter an integer value between 0 and 255, both inclusive.
Be sure to make sure the IP address to your network administrator.
Do not specify the duplicate IP address.
Destination Port No.
Enter a value (1024-65535) to match the PLC’s Ethernet port number.
Port No. 5001 and 5002 are not available. They are used only for the ethernet unit system and the
PLC's ladder logic software. When using the Auto Open UDP Port feature, enter 5000 (defaut
setting value) for the Port No.
Network No.
Designates the network number when communicating via the network. Specify an integer value
between 1 and 239, both inclusive, or 254, to identify the communicating PLC. If not
communicating via the network, enter 0.
PLC No.
Designates the PLC number when communicating via the network. Specify an integer value
between 0 and 64, both inclusive to identify the communicating PLC. If not communicating via
the network, enter 255.
