21.3.4 Determining the GOT side interface (Interface selection)
To use the multi-channel function, add interfaces to the GOT with the following methods if required.
(1) GT16
• Install communication units on the extension interfaces.
• Use communication units installed on the extension interfaces with the RS-232 interface, the RS422/485
interface, and/or the Ethernet interface built in the GOT.
3rd stage
Extension interface 1
Extension interface 2
Standard interface 1
(RS-232 interface built in the GOT)
Allows a controller to be connected via the serial
communication.
For RS-232 communications, connect RS-232 cable.
For RS-422 communications, attach an RS-422
conversion unit and connect RS-422 cable to it.
(For the GT1655, the RS-422 conversion unit is not applicable.)
Extension interface allows the installation
of a communication unit up to the 3rd stage,
respectively.
(For the GT1655, only one extension interface can
be installed.)
2nd stage
1st stage
Standard interface 2
(USB interface built in the GOT)
Not used for the multi-channel function.
Standard interface 4
(Ethernet interface built in the GOT)
Allows controllers to be connected via Ethernet.
Up to four channels can be set.
Standard interface 3
(RS-422/485 interface built in the GOT)
Allows a controller to be connected via the serial
communication.
