8.3.5 Parameter setting example (setting using GX Developer)
In the network parameter CC-Link list setting, set the first I/O No., total number of stations connected, remote I/O refresh devices, remote register refresh devices, and station information setting.
Setting the items of the following CC-Link list setting and CC-Link station information makes a GOT communication sequence program unnecessary.

(1) System configuration and connection conditions
The following system configuration and connection conditions assume CC-Link connection (remote device station) with the PLC CPU.
The numbers ( to ) given in the system configuration denote the numbers ( to ) in "(2) System equipment".
Refer to these numbers when you want to confirm the types and applications.

*1 The number of connected GOTs varies with the configuration of the CC-Link system, and the installation distance (maximum transmission distance) varies with the transmission speed of the CC-Link system.
For details, refer to the CC-Link System Master/Local Unit User's Manual (Details).
*2 On the CC-Link system, the GOT is handled as a slave station as described below.

9.2.1 Monitoring Overview
When the A8GT-J61BT15 is used, the GOT has the following two monitoring methods.
Monitor Method Normal Monitor Dedicated Command Monitor
Description
The remote inputs/outputs and remote registers of the GOT assigned to the remote device station in the CC-Link parameter setting are specified and monitored.
The remote register area is used as the GOT internal device transfer command area to specify and monitor the GOT internal devices.
Advantage Data update processing speed is high.
Data update processing speed is high.
Since a dedicated command is executed to develop data in the GOT internal word devices (GD0 to GD1023), multiple pieces of
information, such as the operating status, production and operation directives, can be monitored within one screen.
(The number of devices that can be displayed on one screen is larger than that of normal monitor.)
Disadvantage
As the remote register assignment area of the GOT is small, the number of devices that can be displayed on one screen is small.
A sequence program is needed to execute the dedicated command.
