14.3 Protocol
POINT
Whether station number setting will be made or not must be selected if
the RS-232C communication function is used. Note that choosing "no
station numbers" in parameter No. 53 will make the communication
protocol free of station numbers as in the MR-J2-A servo amplifiers.
Since up to 32 axes may be connected to the bus, add a station number to the command, data No., etc. to
determine the destination servo amplifier of data communication. Set the station number to each servo
amplifier using the parameter. Transmission data is valid for the servo amplifier of the specified station
number or group.
When "
*
" is set as the station number added to the transmission data, the transmission data is made
valid for all servo amplifiers connected. However, when return data is required from the servo amplifier
in response to the transmission data, set "0" to the station number of the servo amplifier which must
provide the return data.
