(3) Seamless communication to Ethernet devices
Communication using the specified IP address can be performed over CC-Link IE Controller Network.
For example, a personal computer can communicate with the FTP server.
With this function, two networks of CC-Link IE Controller Network and Ethernet are not required, resulting in
reducing the wiring cost. (
In addition, communications using the specified IP address can be relayed from CC-Link IE Controller Network
to a different network supporting the IP packet transfer function.
