Serial PLC Links
Overview
The FQM1 can be connected to a Serial PLC Link by linking to a Serial PLC
Master. (It cannot be connected by the Complete Link Method.) Program-free
data exchange can be achieved between the master and slave by connecting
a CJ1M CPU Unit as the master and the FQM1 as the slave. The FQM1 con-
nection is made to the RS-232C port on the Coordinator Module.

CIO 0080 to CIO 0099 in the Serial PLC Link Bit Area in the Coordinator Mod-
ule are shared with the CJ1M master as shown below.

Note
Use a CJ1W-CIF11 RS-232C to RS-422A/485 Conversion Adapter when con-
necting more than one FQM1 to the same CJ1M CPU Unit (1:N, where N = 8
max.).

max.).
Up to 10 words can be sent by the CJM1 and FQM1. Fewer words can be
sent by setting the number of link words, but the number of words will be the
same for both the CJM1 and FQM1.
