The address for Mitsubishi A Series is specified thus:

<Station Address><Check sum type><Station Address Offset><;Block Number>

 

<Station Address> is the address of the Mitsubishi A Series instrument in the decimal range 0 to 99. The R2 only supports a station address of 0.

 

<Check sum type> is either “c” or “C” for check sum on i.e. dip switch 12 is set on. Use “n” or “N” for check sum off.

 

<Station Address Offset> is to be used when you need more than one data type for a given instrument e.g.

Your ladder program uses 257 Inputs for an instrument @ address 0 with check sum on. Then you need 2 Input blocks as each only holds 256 Inputs, so you would specify 2 Inputs:

1. 0c

2. 0c256

Your ladder program uses 513 Inputs for an instrument @ address 0 with check sum off. Then you need 3 Input blocks as each only holds 256 Inputs, so you would specify 3 Inputs:

1. 1

2. 1n256

3. 1n512

 

<;Block Number> is used when accessing the “File Registers” instrument. The semi-colon is mandatory. The number is decimal starting from 0.
