State monitoring parameters
The state monitoring parameters are used to allocate areas in the PMC
area to which the states of the local node and other nodes are posted.
Table 1-7 State Monitoring Parameters
Item Description
OWN STATUS
Pa20
Specify the start address of an area in the PMC R area to
which the communication state of the local node is posted.
When this area is not used, set -1, or press soft key [DISABL].
This parameter allows only an even address to be set.
ENTRY NODE
Pa21
Specify the start address of an area in the PMC R area to
which the network participation state of other nodes is posted.
When this area is not used, set -1, or press soft key [DISABL].
This parameter allows only an even address to be set.
Area 1 allocation parameters
The area 1 allocation parameters are used for allocation-related
settings to enable data exchange between common memory area 1 and
the PMC R area.
Table 1-8 Area 1 Allocation Parameters
Item Description
AREA1 DO/DI:
ALLOCATION
Pa30
Start address of an area in the PMC R area used for data
exchange with common memory area 1.
This parameter allows only an even address to be set.
AREA1 DO/DI:
ADDRESS
Pa31
Start address of an area in common memory area 1 used for
data exchange with the PMC R area.
AREA1 DI/DO:
SIZE(Note 1)
Pa32
Size of data exchanged between common memory area 1 and
the PMC R area (Unit: Words).
When data exchange between common memory area 1 and
the PMC is not performed, set 0 in this parameter.
NOTE
1 The unit of size set in this parameter is words. This
means that for an area used in the PMC R area, the
number of bytes as many as the size set in this
parameter multiplied by 2 is required.
