Device Net - Slave I/O
GP-PRO/PBIII for Windows Device/PLC Connection Manual
• Only the LS Area's User Area (from LS20 to LS1999) is used for this
communication.
• The System Area (from LS0 to LS19) and Reading Area settings cannot be
used for PLC communication.
• GP will be used as a slave unit.
• Explicit Message Communication is not supported.
•The Contents in System Area are programless.

Slave I/O
Slave I/O is the feature that converts I/O data automatically between the PLC in-
stalledwiththemasterunitandGPunit.
Slave I/O uses a special link method that does not allow a user to access a PLC
directly.
WhenusingDeviceNetConnectiontheGPseriesunitperformslikeanI/Oterminal
(Remoteterminal).TheGP'sLSareawillbeusedasa device which inputs/outputs
data with the host (PLC).
The master (host PLC) unit Output area is allocated to GP's Input area, and the
master's Input area is allocated to GP's Output area. The LS area's Input area is
followed in sequence by the Output area. (See below)

List Device Net Cables
There are two types of cable, thick and thin, for the Device Net unit.
Besure to use only cables that meet the Device Net specifications. The following
two cables are recommended.
• Rockwell(AllenBradley) Thick type 1485C-PI-A***
• Rockwell(AllenBradley) Thin type 1485C-PI-C***
