*1 Only the Multi Unit can be used.

*2 The 2-Way Driver (Pro-Server, GP-Web and others) cannot be used.
*3 When using the optional Ethernet I/F unit, a bus conversion unit (PSL-
CONV000) is required.
*4 Using the optional Ethernet I/F Unit allows you to set up separate Class and
Net No.s for 2-Way Driver applications (Pro-Server, GP-Web and others)
and the PLC. When doing this, data transfer with the PLC is performed through
the optional Ethernet I/F Unit.
