The FX2N-232IF module provides an
RS-232C interface for serial data communi-
cations with the MELSEC FX2N/FX0N.
Communication with PCs, printers,
modems, barcode readers etc. is handled
by the PLC program using FROM/TO in-
structions.
The send and receive data are stored in
the FX2N-232IF’s own buffer memory.
Changes at the user program are not
possible via this interface.

Active Data Interface FX0N-232ADP
FX0N FX2N
CPU vers. 2.00
The additional RS232C interface FX0N-
232ADP permits active communication
between the PLC and surrounding
RS232C peripherals. All operands can
be sent or received via this interface.
Devices can be transmitted via this inter-
face. A program transfer or the connec-
tion of an MAC terminal is not possible.
The module is suitable for the connection
of printers, bar code readers, PCs and
other PLC systems. The communication is
handled by the PLC program using the RS
instruction.
The connection is to the communications
bus on the left side of the controller.
The internal serial RS422 interface is also
fully available.
