• Mount a total of up to 16 CPU Bus Units, including these Serial Communications Units, to the CPU Rack or Expansion Racks to create systems with up to 32 serial communications ports.
• Connect an NT-AL001 RS-232C/RS-442A Link Adapter to the RS-232C port to enable 1:N communications.
• With the CJ1W-SCU[]2, you can use a faster baud rate (up to 230.4 kbps) and faster data transfer to the CPU Unit to enable connecting to high-speed external devices.

Protocol | Port 1 | Host Link, protocol macro, Serial Gateway, No- protocol, NT Link, Modbus-RTU Slave, loopback test , or 1:1 Host Link can be selected for each port. *1, *2 | Host Link, protocol macro, NT Link, or loopback test can be selected for each port. Unit Ver. 1.2 or later also supports Serial Gateway, no- protocol, and 1:1 Host Link modes. (Note: The Serial Gateway can also be executed in protocol macro mode.) *1 Unit Ver. 1.3 or later also supports Modbus-RTU slave mode. | ||||

CPU Rack | A total of up to 16 Units, including all other CPU Bus Units. No restrictions on the mounting location. However, if an external interrupt task is used, the Unit must be mounted in one of the following slots on the CPU Rack. CJ2H-CPU6[]-EIP CPU Unit: Slots 0 to 3 CJ2H-CPU6[], CJ2M-CPU[][] or CJ1G/H- CPU[][]H CPU Unit: Slots 0 to 4 CJ1M-CPU[][] CPU Unit: Slots 0 to 2 External interrupt tasks will not be started if the Unit is mounted to any other slot. | A total of up to 16 Units, including all other CPU Bus Units. No restrictions on the mounting location. | |||||

Data exchange with the CPU Unit | Ordinary refreshing of software switches and status | Allocated 25 words of the 25 words in the CPU Bus Unit CIO Area (constant data exchange with the CPU Unit) | |||||
Transfer from the CPU Unit set by the system | Of the CPU Bus Unit DM Area, each serial port is allocated 10 words (total 20 words). Data is transferred from the CPU Unit at the following times: Startup or restart Ladder instruction: STUP (237) Port Settings Changing Flag turns ON (Auxiliary Area) | ||||||
Simple Backup Function | The CPU Unit's Simple Backup Function can be used to backup the Protocol Macro data in the Serial Communications Unit to the CPU Unit's Memory Card. The backed-up data can be restored or compared. (The Simple Backup Function can be used with the CJ1-H and CJ1M CPU Units only.) | ||||||
