9.11.3 Automatic assignment of I/O numbers
The I/O numbers can be assigned automatically in CONFIG mode.
Parameter settings and sequence programs are not necessary for this assignment.
Operating procedure
Execute the steps 1) to 5) below to assign the I/O numbers automatically.
1 Connect each remote I/O unit to the built-in master.
2 Set to CONFIG mode
Set the DIP switch 6 to ON and DIP switch 7 to OFF (CONFIG mode) in the FX3UC-32MT-LT.
3 Turn the power ON
Turn ON the power supply adapter (or dedicated power supply) and then the FX
3UC
-32MT-LT (in
this order).
The built-in master collects information (types and numbers of I/O) on connected remote stations,
and stores the collected information in the buffer memory [BFM #32 (20h) to #95 (5Fh)] and built-in
memory (EEPROM).
4 Check the remote I/O unit connection status.
Confirm that the contents of the buffer memory [BFM #32 (20h) to #95 (5Fh)] are consistent with
the actual system configuration.
5 Change the operation mode to "ONLINE", and start the PLC again (power
OFF → ON).
Set the DIP switch 6 to OFF (and leave the DIP switch 7 in OFF) in the FX
3UC
-32MT-LT, and turn
ON the power of the PLC again.
When a power supply adapter or dedicated power supply is used, turn ON the power in the order
"Power supply adapter (or dedicated power supply) → PLC (built-in master)".
The FX
3UC
-32MT-LT reads information on connected remote stations from the built-in memory
(EEPROM), and assigns the I/O number.
9.11.4 Extension equipment types and I/O number assignment order
1. Rule of assignment order
I/O numbers are automatically assigned consecutively from the main unit (built-in unit).
I/O numbers are always assigned at the end to the remote I/O unit connected to the CC-Link/LT built-in
master as shown below.
