Configuring the CC-Link Settings Tab

The CC-Link Settings tab is used to configure the In-Sight CIO-Micro-CC I/O module for communication on the CC-Link network.

Note: If you are not connected to an In-Sight CIO-Micro-CC I/O module, all of the controls will be disabled until this connection is resolved.

Defines whether or not the CC-Link interface on the In-Sight CIO-Micro-CC I/O module is enabled or disabled. By default, the Enable checkbox is checked, and the CC-Link interface on the In-Sight CIO-Micro-CC I/O module is enabled. Uncheck the Enable checkbox to diagnose and debug your CC-Link connection, should the need arise.

Defines the CC-Link specification compatibility, V1 or V2. By default, V1 is selected.

Defines the CC-Link baud rate of the CC-Link network, 10M, 5M, 2.5M, 625k, 156k. By default, 10M is selected.

Defines the station number of the CC-Link slave, from 1 to 64. By default, 1 is selected.

Note: The values assigned in the Station Number and Number of Stations parameters cannot exceed 64.

Defines the number of stations that the In-Sight CIO-Micro-CC I/O module occupies on the CC-Link network, from 1 to 4. By default, 1 is selected.

Note: The values assigned in the Station Number and Number of Stations parameters cannot exceed 64.

Defines the number of extension cycles that the In-Sight CIO-Micro-CC I/O module utilizes on the CC-Link network, 1X (Disabled), 2X, 4X, or 8X. By default, 1X (Disabled) is selected.

Note: This option is only available when the Version parameter is set to V2.

Displays the number of bits and words available in the input bit and word buffers, respectively.

To determine the number of bits available in the input buffer:

  • When the Version parameter is set to V1: 32 x (Number of Stations)-16
  • When the Version parameter is set to V2, and the Extension Cycles parameter is set to 1X (Disabled): 32 x (Number of Stations)-16
  • When the Version parameter is set to V2 and the Extension Cycles parameter is enabled: 32 x (Number of Stations) x (Extension Cycles) - 16 x (Extension Cycles) - 16

To determine the number of words available in the input buffer:

  • When the Version parameter is set to V1: 4 x (Number of Stations)
  • When the Version parameter is set to V2, and the Extension Cycles parameter is set to 1X (Disabled): 4 x (Number of Stations)
  • When the Version parameter is set to V2 and the Extension Cycles parameter is enabled: 4 x (Number of Stations) x (Extension Cycles)

Displays the number of bits and words available in the output bit and word buffers, respectively.

To determine the number of bits available in the output buffer:

  • When the Version parameter is set to V1: 32 x (Number of Stations)-16
  • When the Version parameter is set to V2, and the Extension Cycles parameter is set to 1X (Disabled): 32 x (Number of Stations)-16
  • When the Version parameter is set to V2 and the Extension Cycles parameter is enabled: 32 x (Number of Stations) x (Extension Cycles) - 16 x (Extension Cycles) - 16

To determine the number of words available in the output buffer:

  • When the Version parameter is set to V1: 4 x (Number of Stations)
  • When the Version parameter is set to V2, and the Extension Cycles parameter is set to 1X (Disabled): 4 x (Number of Stations)
  • When the Version parameter is set to V2 and the Extension Cycles parameter is enabled: 4 x (Number of Stations) x (Extension Cycles)
