2.1.2 Q170MCPU System internal configuration
(1) What is Multiple CPU system for Q170MCPU ?
A Multiple CPU system for Q170MCPU is a system in which between the PLC
CPU area and Motion CPU area are connected with the Multiple CPU high speed
bus in order to control the I/O modules and intelligent function modules.
PLC CPU area is fixed as CPU No.1, and Motion CPU area is fixed as CPU
No.2.
And, the Motion CPU area controls the servo amplifiers connected by SSCNET
cable.
