Host Link Unit
Host computer
used together, two host computers can be connected to the same PC, indepen-
dent of each other. The PC can then execute commands sent from either host
computer.
Up to two of the C500-LK103, C500-LK103-P, and C500-LK203 Rack-mounting
Host Link Units can also be connected, in any combination (including two of the
same Units), to any to a single C1000H, or C2000H PC, allowing up to three host
computers to be connected to these PCs. Control from three host computers is
also available with C200H/HS/HX/HG/HE PCs, where a second Rack-mounting
Host Link Unit can be added on a C200H Expansion I/O Rack. All other PCs are
limited to two Host Link Units. SYSMAC NET Link Units can be combined with
the C500-LK103(-P) and C500-LK203 Rack-mounting Host Link Units when a
C1000H or C2000H PC is used. When combining with a SYSMAC NET Link
Unit, however, only one Rack-mounting Host Link Unit can be used instead of
two.
In all but the third configuration example, Link Adapters are used to branch be-
tween system devices, or to convert between different types of cables, or to per-
form both of these functions. The first part of the Link Adapter model numbers
(3G2A9-) in the examples has been omitted.
System components can be connected using RS-232C or RS-422 cables, or
both, any of three types of optical fiber cable, or a combination of wired and opti-
cal sections. In any system, the maximum length of RS-232C cable is 15 m. The
total length of all RS-422 cable must be no longer than 10 m. RS-232C and
RS-422 cables which are used to connect the Host Link Unit to the host comput-
er are not available from OMRON and must be purchased from an alternative
source.
Maximum lengths for optical fiber cables are determined by the type of cable and
the particular models employed. Models which finish with “-P” in the code num-
ber can be set at a length of 20 m for APF cable and 200 m for PCF cable. Models
without the “-P” coding can be set at a maximum length of 800m with PCF cable.
