Omron CJ1W-EIP21 User Manual

FINS commands can be sent from the CPU Unit of a PLC by using the
SEND(090), RECV(098), and CMND(490) instructions.

SEND(090): Writes I/O data from the local node to another node.
RECV(098): Reads I/O data from another node to the local node.
CMND(490): Issues FINS commands for controlling operations such as send-
ing and receiving I/O memory data to and from other nodes, reading informa-
tion regarding other nodes, and so on.

The following table shows the specifications for PLC communications using
the SEND(090), RECV(098), and CMND(490) instructions.

1.

The maximum data length is limited to 512 bytes for data exchange be-
tween the PLC and SYSMAC LINK Systems or the PLC and SYSMAC
BUS/2 Remote I/O Systems.

2.

When broadcasting, do not require a response.
Use the FINS/UDP method for broadcasting.

Data contents

The following data is sent and received with the execution of 
each instruction.

SEND(090):

response data.
RECV(098):
Sends request for remote node to send data, and receives 
response data.
CMND(490):
Sends any FINS command and receives response data.
