Q.I have four drivers connected to a NETC02-CC and using 16-word arrangement with the command fixation method. The position data settings could be configured for address number 0 and 1, but not address number 2 and 3. What are the possible causes?

A.

Check the extended cyclic settings. If the initial value remains at "2×," you will need to change it to "4×" or "8×."

When the extended cyclic setting is set to "2×" for 4 connected units, the number of remote register words required for data setting is insufficient, and therefore the settings for the units with address number 2 and the subsequent number cannot be made.

The relationship between the extended cyclic setting, the number of remote register words, and the number of connected units is shown below.

Extended Cyclic Settings Remote Register Number Of Words Maximum number of connected units
when using a 16-word arrangement.
2 times 32 words 2 units
4 times 64 words 4 units
8 times 128 words 8 units

In case of 16-word arrangement, the maximum number of connected units of drivers will be the number derived by dividing the number of remote register words by 16 (words).
Please change the extended cyclic setting according to the number of connections.
