Introduction
This document describes the standard specifications of the CC-Link I/F that links a PLC and F381A/
F388A.
By using the CC-Link I/F, the F381A/F388A can be controlled directly from the PLC, so that wiring can
be substantially reduced.
Readers this document should have basic knowledge of the programming of the PLC and basic knowledge
of the CC-Link I/F.
The F381A/F388A with CC-Link I/F can be linked with general-purpose PLC as a remote device station
corresponding to the CC-Link Ver. 1.10.
(CC-Link is an abbreviation for Control & Communication Link.)
Functions provided by the F381A/F388A CC-Link
●Setting of wave No.
Wave No. can be assigned.
It can be changed by inputting a set value, and turning on the relay of Request flag 1.
(See "●Setting change of wave No."on p.5.)
●For changing the current set value
The setting can be changed by using the general-purpose area "data".
It can be changed by inputting the setting item (command) and a set value, and turning on the relay of
Request flag 2. (The R/W relay should be off.)
(See "●Setting change by using the general-purpose area "data""on p.6.)
Note) Items that can be changed are only those entered in the "Command list" on p.11.
●For checking the current set value
The set value can be read by using the general-purpose area "data".
It can be read by inputting the setting item (command), and turning on the relay of Request flag 2.
(The R/W relay should be on.)
(See "●Request to read set value(s) by using the general-purpose area "data""on p.7.)
Note) Items that can be read are only those entered in the "Command list" on p.11.
●Display of indicated values, hold values and wave No.
The remote register R →M (F381/F388→PLC) allows display of indicated values, hold values and wave
No. (See"Remote resister R →M (F381A/F388A →PLC)"on p.7.)
The indicated values are updated at approx. 200Hz, and the hold values are updated after completion of
sampling.
Note) Start the next sampling after completion of updating.
●About status information
Status information on the same items as I/O can be obtained.
The status information is displayed in the relay domain of the remote station.
(See "Remote input (F381A/F388A →PLC)" on p.19.)
●About direction of operations
Operations on the same items as I/O can be directed by using the relay domain.
Turn on/off the corresponding bit in the relay domain.
(See "Remote output (PLC →F381A/F388A)" on p.17.)
