(2) To execute automatic refresh, it is necessary for Q-PLC CPU with the multi-CPU
setting of PC parameter, and for the Q motion CPU with the multi-CPU setting of
basic setting to set the number of points transmitted by each CPU, and the device
(device used to execute the automatic refresh) to store the data.
The head device can be set in the following two ways.
1) Auto setting
When the applicable device is set at the head device setting column (1)
of each automatic refresh setting, the head device of each CPU is set
automatically with the device as the head.
2) Manual setting
When "*" is set at the head device setting column (1) of each automatic
refresh setting, the head device of each CPU can be set at the (2)
column optionally.
It is possible to set a 'DUMMY' at the head device (2) of a machine other
than the local machine.
To set the 'DUMMY', set the "*". Note that the automatic refresh is not
executed for machine to which the 'DUMMY' is set.
