This section (7)
The following shows the procedure for communicating GT SoftGOT1000 to the MELDAS C6/C64.
(1) Before setting
(a) Precautions for monitoring
GT SoftGOT1000 cannot monitor other stations.
GT SoftGOT1000 cannot monitor CPUs on the other networks.
(b) Precautions for communication
When multiple network devices (including GT SoftGOT1000) are connected to the same
segment, the network load may increase, and the communication speed may slow down
between GT SoftGOT1000 and the PLC.
The following actions may improve the communication performance.
• Use a switching hub.
• Use the high-speed 100BASE-TX (100Mbps).
• Reduce the monitoring points of GT SoftGOT1000.
