Precautions
Precautions on system
The target device of an Ethernet cable differs depending on the Ethernet network system configuration to
be used.
Connect the cable to the system devices, including Ethernet modules, hubs, and transceivers, according
to the Ethernet network system to be used.
Communication via network system
A GOT cannot access a CNC on other network via a CNC (the network module, Ethernet module, and
others) on the network where the GOT is connected.
When connecting multiple network devices (including a GOT) to the same segment
When multiple network devices (including a GOT) are connected to the same segment, the network load
may increase, and the communication speed may slow down between the GOT and a programmable
controller. The following actions can improve the communication performance.
• Use a switching hub.
• Use the high-speed 100BASE-TX (100Mbps).
• Reduce the GOT monitoring points.
Applicable range for monitoring
A GOT can only monitor a programmable controller on the network where the GOT is connected. Note
that the routing parameter setting is required when monitoring the programmable controller CPU on the
other network.
Version of MELDAS C6/C64
For MELDAS C6/C64, use the NC system software version D0 or later.
Precautions on setup
A GOT cannot access a MELDAS (C6/C64) on other network via a MELDAS (C6/C64) (the network
module, Ethernet module, and others) on the network where the GOT is connected.
Connecting Ethernet cable
Keep a distance between the Ethernet cable and power line or electric power line, and run the Ethernet
cable through ferrite cores (included) at positions close to control devices so that the Ethernet cable is not
affected by noise.
