FX3U-20SSC-H positioning module

[rumayan 0]

Hello, I am trying to control three motors (X, Y and Z) using Fx3u-64MR/ES as base unit and FX3U-20SSC-H as a positioning module. One positioning module will control two axes (e.g. X and Y) but I have one more positioning module to control the Z-axis but don't know how to connect to the same PLC. I've read in the manual that eight FX3U-20SSC-H modules can be connected to one PLC base unit using extention cables!! which extention cable they are talking about? Does any one have tried to connect two positioning modules to one PLC-base unit? If say so, please how? Thanks a lot Faisal

There's a port on the right side of the positioning module that allows you to daisy-chain the next module to it. All of the right-side-bus extension modules have a short cable and connector on the left, and the matching port on the right. Just plug 'em together.
