More User-Friendly
Automatic logging just by using a SD memory card
Automatic data logging realized just by inserting the SD memory card into the CPU, which is achieved as the memory card includes the logging configuration file. Instructing data logging remotely is also realized just by sending the configuration file by e-mail and copying onto the SD memory card.
Automatically send logging files to FTP server
Data logging files stored on the SD memory card can be sent to FTP server just by making a simple setting with the Logging configuration tool. As the logging server can handle multiple files, management and maintenance tasks can be reduced.
Quick troubleshooting response
Error causes and solutions can be quickly done as only the required data related to the problem is extracted, without having to spend time on filtering large volumes of diagnostic data.

Easily connect to BACnet® and MODBUS®/TCP Improved functionality!
Ethernet realizes a high-speed connection, such as communication with external devices.
By using predefined protocol support function*3 , various devices that require open network protocol support, such as BACnet® and MODBUS®/TCP are supported.
Seamless communication across all layers
The Universal model QCPUs support a multitude of networking technologies including the highspeed, high-capacity CC-Link IE Control Network and CC-Link IE Field Network. Along with MELSECNET/H, Ethernet, and CC-Link, these networks may be accessed seamlessly beyond network type or hierarchy. Each programmable controller on the network can be accessed for programming and maintenance duties by using a personal computer with the appropriate engineering tools connected via Ethernet.
Seamless communication Information communication
Seamless data communication through Ethernet, CC-Link IE, and CC-Link allow easy access to information, no matter where it resides on the network. Through this technology, it is possible to “drill down” from the Enterprise or IT layer through multiple networks accessing programming controllers using GX Works2 programming or other related software. In addition, many devices supporting SLMP*1 such as vision sensors and RFID controllers may be connected to the CC-Link IE.
*1: SLMP (SeamLess Message Protocol) is a protocol advocated by the CC-Link Partner Association.
CC-Link IE Control
CC-Link IE Control is a high-reliability distributed control network designed to handle very large data communications (128K word) over a high-speed (1 Gbps) dual loop optical cable topology. *: Compatible modules: QJ71GP21-SX, QJ71GP21S-SX
CC-Link IE Field Network Basic
CC-Link IE Field Network Basic realizes easier network integration, as its cyclic communications stack is software-based, without requiring a dedicated ASIC helping to reduce implementation costs for device partners. CC-Link IE Field Network Basic, which is a part of CC-Link IE, realizes easier connection of Ethernet devices. *: Compatible modules: QnUDVCPU, QnUDPVCPU
CC-Link Safety
CC-Link Safety is a safety field network that prevents risks on the shop floor.
This realizes a highly-reliable and a high-speed communication with less wiring.
*: Compatible modules: QS0J61BT12
AnyWireASLINK
AnyWireASLINK makes it possible to centrally monitor (visibility) the state of all sensors from the programmable controller, by that improving productivity and reducing operation steps.
*: Modules supporting AnyWireASLINK: QJ51AW12AL, NZ2AW1C2AL
BACnet®
This network supports the communication protocol standard BACnet® client function. This network is mainly used to monitor and control airconditioning, lighting and fire detection, etc. in building automation system applications.
*: Compatible modules: QnUDVCPU, QJ71E71-100 (client only)
CC-Link IE Field
CC-Link IE Field is an all-round versatile gigabit Ethernet based network integrating controller, I/O control, safety control, and motion control in a flexible wiring topology supporting star, ring, and line configurations.
