Ethernet Communication and FA-M3 Integration
The F3LE11-1T exchanges data between the FA-M3 sequence CPU and other nodes on an Ethernet network. Its higher-level link service supports reading and writing sequence CPU devices from another networked node. It also supports remote program upload, download, start, and stop operations.
The module provides the following communication functions:
- Ethernet speed selection: Automatically switches between 10 Mbps and 100 Mbps according to the supported network connection.
- Remote programming: Allows program creation and maintenance through WideField3 on a connected computer.
- Email communication: Supports SMTP and POP3 for email transmission and reception.
- Data transfer: Supports transmission of sequence CPU device values, program upload and download, and sampling trace data.
The F3LE11-1T is an Ethernet interface for the FA-M3 platform. Its specified functions do not establish support for EtherNet/IP, PROFINET, or other industrial application-layer protocols.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Which Ethernet connection types does the F3LE11-1T support?
A: It supports 10BASE-T and 100BASE-TX Ethernet connections compliant with IEEE 802.3, with automatic switching between 10 Mbps and 100 Mbps.
Q: Can the F3LE11-1T support remote PLC programming?
A: Yes. It supports remote programming through Yokogawa FA-M3 WideField3 and provides higher-level link services for remote sequence CPU device access and program operations.
Q: Where is the F3LE11-1T installed in the PLC system?
A: The module installs in an I/O slot of the Yokogawa FA-M3 multi-controller. Confirm the applicable base unit configuration and installation requirements in the hardware manual before installation.
Field Installation Guidelines
- Verify compatibility: Confirm that the FA-M3 base unit and system configuration support the F3LE11-1T.
- Isolate power: Follow the controller manufacturer’s procedures for electrical isolation before inserting or removing the module. Hot-swap capability is not established by the supplied specifications.
- Install the module: Fit the interface module into the designated FA-M3 I/O slot and secure it according to the hardware manual.
- Connect Ethernet cabling: Use cabling and connectors compatible with the selected 10BASE-T or 100BASE-TX network. Keep communication cables away from high-voltage conductors and major sources of electrical interference.
- Configure network communication: Verify IP settings, network connectivity, and the required TCP/IP, SMTP, or POP3 configuration before enabling remote functions.
- Test communication: Check sequence CPU device access, WideField3 remote programming, and email functions as applicable to the project.
- Verify environmental conditions: Maintain the specified operating temperature and non-condensing humidity limits.
