This chapter explains the setting procedure and setting example of each
communication path when the utility setting type is used for programming.
POINT
• For the settings other than “As set by user”, set the value as shown in the table.
• Before attempting to communicate with MX Component for the first time, check if
MX Component can communicate normally using GX Developer. It will help
detecting errors when MX Component cannot communicate with the CPU
module.
• For details of the settings for the module, refer to the manual of each module.
