Communication Setting
The recommended communication parameter settings of the PLC and the V7 series is as follows:
* If a tool port (the ladder port for RS-232C) is used, the range of PLC parameter setting is
limited as below. Adjust the PLC parameter setting to communication parameter setting of
the V7 series.
