Remarks
- When installing multiple number of modules on a single PC, make them allocated so that relay
link area, register link area, and flag area may not overlap with each other.
- When installing multiple number of modules on a single PC, pay attention to the total communica-
tion data volume and the number of bytes available for communication area.
- Though more than one JW-21MN can be mounted on single basic rack panel, they cannot
directly communicate with other stations beyond one network.
