8.2 User Defined Protocol Communication 
 
 
8.2.1 Introduction 
 
User Defined Protocol Communication allows users who do communication between MASTER-K120S main unit and other kind 
of device to define the other company’s protocol at MASTER-K PLC. There’re a number of kinds of protocols made by many 
companies, that it’s difficult to have all protocols in it. So if a user defines a protocol that can be applied to his/her purpose, 
MASTER-K120S main unit executes the communication with the other kind of device through the defined protocol.   
For this, protocol frame must be defined in KGLWIN (Version 2.0 or higher). And exact knowledge about the contents of the 
protocol defined by the user is vital in making the communication possible. KGLWIN can download a user defined protocol 
frame into MASTER-K120S main unit and it is saved. it is not erased by power’s off/on. For using user-defined mode, he/she 
should program with instruction controlling sending of PLC as well as edit frames. This section explains User Defined Protocol 
Communication setting & usage.
