Network to display the communication module selection dialog box and click the [Add
Module] button to add the XGL-EFMT(B) module to the network configuration.
3. Select [Add Item] - [P2P Communication] from the context menu of the added
XGL-EFMT(B) to add a P2P item as a sub item of the FEnet module.

4. Double-click the P2P channel item to display the Channel Setting dialog box.
5. Select the P2P driver item. If the driver type of the channel item where the cursor is
located is a type that can be set by the client detail setting, the [Detailed Settings] button
at the bottom is activated.

dialog box and finish setting the client port number.

6) Assign Addresses function for High-speed Link of DeviceNet is added.


A function that automatically assign the High-speed Link send/receive address of DeviceNet
has been added.

[Steps]
1. Create a new project using [Project] - [New Project].
2. Select [Add Item] - [Communication Module] from the context menu of the Undefined
Network to display the communication module selection dialog box and click the [Add
Module] button to add the XGL-DMEA/B module to the network configuration.
3. Select [Add Item] - [High-speed Link Communication] in the context menu of the added

4. Double-click the High-speed Link item to display the High-speed Link setting window.

5. Set the block so that the High-speed Link item is completed. Incomplete HS link blocks
are excluded from automatic address assignment.

6. Select context menu [Sets Address] to display the Assign Addresses dialog box. Then
input Read/Save Area Start address and Transmit/Receiving Offset, press [OK] button. If
an error is not detected in the validity check, the values of the previously set High-Speed
Link block Read/Save area and Sending/Receiving Data column are sequentially addressed
in batch.
