Setting the connection destination (COM port, transmission speed and the 20SSC-H module No.).
Cautions on communication
• When connecting the personal computer interfaces to the same COM port in FX Configurator-FP and GX
Developer, set the same baud rate for both. When FX Configurator-FP and GX Developer are running
simultaneously, the baud rate that was set first has priority.
• An error may occur in the communication with FX PLC when used with the resume function, suspend
setting, power-saving function and standby mode of the peripheral device. For this reason, do not set the
functions above when communicating with the 20SSC-H.
• A communication error may occur depending on the combination of the personal computer model, USB
cable and so on. In that case, refer to the message displayed and perform the operation again.
• When the baud rate changes for the fast communication at the serial port of the personal computer, it may
disable the communication, or communication may delay due to too many retries depending on the
personal computer spec. When the fast communication is not enabled, reduce the baud rate and restart
communication.
