1.2 Features of the Ethernet Module
(1) Data communication using MC protocol (Details are explained in 
Chapter 8 and Chapter 9)
Using MC protocol, the device data of the PLC can be read from/written to the 
host system.
This protocol is a passive protocol that communicates data solely according to 
the requests from the host system. It does not require a sequence program for 
data communication after a connection is established.
(2) Communication using fixed buffers (Details are explained in 
Chapters 6 and 7)
With communication using fixed buffers, a maximum of 1023 words of arbitrary 
data can be sent or received between PLCs or between the PLC and an arbitrary 
device.
An Ethernet module is provided with 2 fixed buffer data areas each with 1023 
word storage space, and each is assigned as either a sending or receiving buffer 
for an arbitrary device.
Since communication using MC protocol is passive, communication using fixed 
buffers is an active protocol. Data can be sent from the PLC side to another PLC 
and an arbitrary device when equipment errors occur or when some specified 
conditions are satisfied.
