Configuring the
Connection Port of
External Devices
You can set the protocol (device type) of a device
connected to the serial port or network port of an SIU, and
set the control panel to use for operation.
• The maximum number of ports that can be used on a
single SIU, including serial ports and network ports, is
40.
Serial port settings are enabled for port numbers in slots
in which a serial port board is installed.
• Control of P-Bus compatible devices, AMP compatible
devices, and TCP/IP connected devices is supported on
network ports.
• Control of AMP compatible devices is not supported on
serial ports.
• If using a network port, configuration of the SIU utility
connector is required. For details, refer to the
ICP-X7000 Installation Manual.
