Applicable Connection Type Between The Got And The Plc Cpu - Mitsubishi Electric Got 1000 Training Manual

1.5 Applicable connection type between the GOT and the PLC CPU

The GOT can perform monitoring by connecting it to the PLC using the following
connection types.
Therefore, the connection type suitable for the system configuration or usage can be
selected.
(1) Bus connection
Bus connection is a method using an extension connector of a base unit to
connect a GOT (connection by I/O bus). This connection type enables the fastest
response to a PLC CPU among all GOT connection types.
By occupying one stage of the extension base unit, up to maximum 5 GOTs can
be connected.
Connection to multiple GOTs is possible.
QCPU
(2) Direct CPU connection
Direct CPU connection is a method using a RS-232/RS-422 to connect a GOT.
Because no other equipment is required to connect the GOT to the PLC, this is the
most economical connection type.
PLC
(3) Computer link connection
Computer link connection is a method using a computer link module or a serial
communication module mounted together with a PLC CPU.
Connection of multiple GOTs is available depending on the model type of the
computer link module or the serial communication module mounted with the PLC
CPU.
