Configuration with the Configuration Tool
Mitsubishi Electric, MA00759F 71
COM1 and COM2
COM1 and COM2 in the Peripheral configuration window represent the physical
ports on the panel. When right-clicking on COM1 or COM2, and selecting Prop-
erties, the following dialog is displayed. Select the transfer speed, connection, parity,
number of data bits and stop bits for the port.
Properties for COM2.
COM1 can be configured as an RS422 or as an RS485 port.
USB
External devices such as a USB hub, Flash drive, mouse or keyboard can be connected
to the USB Host port. Not available for E1012 and E1022.
Ethernet
The operator panel has a built-in Ethernet port for connection to a TCP/IP network.
E1012 and E1022 do not have a built-in Ethernet port. For these models an Ethernet
expansion module to be mounted on the back of the panel is available. The expan-
sion module is configured by right-clicking on Expansion port in the Peripherals
window. The expansion module can only be used for communication with control-
lers using Ethernet drivers and to load/receive projects; not for network functions.
