Setting Routing Tables
Section 7-4

The network address is the address of the network connected to the Unit
(between 1 and 127). The address is set when the local network table is
created.
(between 1 and 127). The address is set when the local network table is
created.
Relay Network Table
A relay network table provides the node and network addresses correspond-
ing to the initial relay point (first point the data must go to) en route to a target
network (end network) not directly connected to the local PLC.
ing to the initial relay point (first point the data must go to) en route to a target
network (end network) not directly connected to the local PLC.
The table traces the route from the relay point to the end network.
The example below shows the routing tables for the route from local node
PLC1 (network address 1, node address 1) to PLC4 (network address 3, node
address 2).

Setting Routing Tables
This section describes routing table settings.
Routing tables are set through the CX-Net (in CX-Programmer), SYSMAC
LINK, or Controller Link Support Software. This section describes setting pro-
cedures and setting details.

Note
1.
Routing tables cannot be set through Programming Consoles.
2.
Networks cannot be crossed by a Programming Device without setting
routing tables. Routing tables can therefore be set only for nodes connect-
ed to the Programming Device and other nodes in the same network. Dis-
connect and reconnect the Programming Device to each network when
setting routing tables in multiple networks.

Make sure that the routing tables are properly set at all nodes on the net-
work. If a message is sent to a node without correct routing tables, trans-
mission will not work properly and a response may not be returned.
