Connection
• Use Hakko Electronics’ QCPU2 cable when connecting the V7 series (CN1) to the PLC
(RS-232C port).
• Use Hakko Electronics’ V6-CP cable when connecting the computer (PLC
programming software) and the V7 series (MJ1/2).
• When using the V-SFT editor and the PLC programming software:
- When using two V6-CP cables:
When the computer has two COM ports, use one port for the V-SFT editor and the
other port for the PLC programming software. Use the V6-CP cables. (It is not
possible to transfer the V-SFT editor and the PLC programming software at the
same time.)
- When using one V6-CP cable:
When using the V-SFT editor and the PLC programming software, it is not possible
to use one COM port for both purposes at the same time. Stop using both software
for communications.
