Connectable Master Units		CompoNet Master Units
Connectable Slave Units		CompoNet Slave Units

Applicable node addresses		Word Slave Units:IN0 to IN63 and OUT0 to OUT63 Bit Slave Units:IN0 to IN127 and OUT0 to OUT127 Repeater Units:0 to 63
Repeater Unit application conditions		Up to 64 Repeater Units can be connected per network.When Repeater Units are connected in series from the Master Unit,up to 2 extra segment layers can be created (i.e.,up to 2 Repeater Units are allowed between a Slave Unit and the Master Unit).
Signal lines		Two lines:BDH (communications data high)and BDL (communications data low)
Power lines		Two lines:BS+and BS -(power for communications and internal Slave Unit circuits) Power is supplied from the Master Unit or Repeater Units.
Communications power supply		24 VDC ± 10%
Connection forms		Flat Cable at baud rate of 93.75 kbits/s:No restrictions Other cables or baud rates:Trunk line and branch lines
		Connections for Slave Units and Repeater Units:T-branch or multidrop connections
Remote I/O communications		Automatic startup when power is turned ON *3 or manual startup using the Remote I/O Communications Start Switch in I/O Communications Manual Start Mode. In Registered Slave Unit Participation Standby Mode,communications is not started until all registered Slave Units are participating in the network. In Communications Error Communications Stop Mode,communications stop when a communications error occurs.
I/O communications manual startup mode		I/O Communications Manual Startup Mode can be set from the CX-Integrater so that remote I/O communications are not started when the power is turned ON.Remote I/O communications will not start until the Remote I/O Communications Start Switch is turned ON in memory.
Communications error communications stop mode		All remote I/O communications are stopped if a communications error occurs in any Slave Unit.*4
Communications error input data zero clear mode		All input data will be cleared to zeros in any Slave Unit in which a communications error occurs.
Duplicated Slave address check		If the same address is set for two different Slave Units or the same memory is allocated to two different nodes,the Slave Unit that joins communications last will cause a duplicated address error and will leave the network.The Duplicated Address Error Flag will turn ON.
Registration table		The Slave Units that can participate for each node address are registered in a table so that only the registered Slave Units can participate.If a different Slave Unit attempts to join the network,the Registration Table Verification Error Flag will turn ON.The Registration Table is generated automatically or manually edited from the CompoNet Support Software.
Slave Unit status	Without registration table	Participation Flag and Communications Error Flag for each Slave Unit Participation Flag:Turns ON and remains ON if the Slave Unit joins the network even one time after system power is turned ON. Communications Error Flag:Turns ON if the Slave Unit cannot communicate with the Master Unit for any reason after the Slave Unit has joined the network (i.e.,if the Participation Flag is ON).(Turns OFF when the error is removed.) Duplicated Address Error Flags and Alarm Flags
	With registration table	Participation Flags and Communications Error Flags for each node address for all Slave Units registered in the Registration Table Registration Table Verification Error Flags All Registered Slave Units Participating Flag

Note: 1. Drop-line connections are not supported with a baud rate of 4 Mbits/s, so Slaves with prewired cables (Bit
Slaves) cannot be used.
2. Round cable, Flat Cable, and Flat Cable II are all different types of cable. To use more than one type of cable
at a time, Repeater Units must be used to separate them on trunk lines and sub-trunk lines.
3. When power is turned ON to the PLC and the Slave Unit communications power is turned ON. Communications
are not started in the following cases:
4. Communications will not stop for verification errors for registration tables or duplicated address settings.
5. This error will also occur if a Slave Unit leaves the network and then a different type of Slave Unit joins the
network.
6. The Registered Slave Unit Participation Monitoring Time can be set (verification error check timing).
Registered Slave Unit Participation Standby Mode can be set. (Remote I/O communications will not start until
all registered Slave Units are participating.)
