(Note)
(Note): The A173UHCPU may be used with 4 channels
of SSCNET.
When using the SSC I/F card/board
(A30CD-PCF/A30BD-PCF), connect it to
SSCNET4 and connect the servo amplifiers to
SSCNET1 to 3.
In this case, up to 24 axes of servo amplifiers
can be connected.

NOTES
(1) Use the A168B when using the bus-connection type GOT.
(2) When using a teaching unit A31TU-E with dead-man switch, a dedicated
connecting cable A31TUCBL03M is required between the CPU module
and A31TU-E connector. If the A31TU-E is connected directly to the
RS422 connector of the CPU without using a dedicated cable, the A31TU-
E will not operate at all.
After disconnecting the A31TU-E, attach a short-circuit connector
A31TUSHORTCON for A31TUCBL.
(3) The motion slots also accept PLC A1S I/O modules.
(4) The motion slots accept one A1SI61 interrupt input module.
This module is designed for only event/NMI input to the motion CPU and is
irrelevant to PLC interrupt programs.
(5) The motion slots accept up to 256 I/O points.
(6) The I/O numbers of the I/O modules loaded in the motion slots should be
later than the I/O numbers used with the PLC slots.
