Avalue displayed in section 4.2.7 “IO Module Re-configuration” is avalue obtained by converting this value into a bit count (x8).(2) Number of bytes set for the EtherNet/IP (CPU board) I/O areaA value displayed as ‘IO size (IN/OUT)’ in section 4.2.3 “GeneralSetup for the EtherNet/IP (CPU board)”.(3) Number of bytes set for the adaptor I/O areaA greater value between the values set for ‘Input size’/‘Outputsize’ in section 4.2.5 “Adaptor Setting”.(4) Number of bytes set for the scanner I/O areaThis value cannot be set.Board statusScanner areaAdaptor areaArea forstation #1Area forstation #2Area forstation #3EtherNet/IP (CPU board)(3)(4)(2) (1)(5)'(5)(5)''51 of 91
