*1 Since the Universal Model QCPU (Q03UDCPU, Q04UDHCPU, Q06UDHCPU, Q10UDHCPU,
Q13UDHCPU, Q20UDHCPU, Q26UDHCPU) cannot be directly connected to the Display, use it with
a Multi CPU System.
*2 Since the High Performance model QCPU (Q02CPU, Q02HCPU, Q06HCPU, Q12HCPU, Q25HCPU)
cannot be directly connected to the Display, use it with a Multi CPU System.
*3 Since the motion CPU (Q172DCPU, Q173DCPU) cannot be directly connected to the Display, use it
with a Multi CPU System.
Connection Configuration
• 1:1 Connection
<HUB Connection>
<Direct Connection>
• 1:n Connection
• n:1 Connection
• For UDP communication with drivers (Ver.1.12.02 or later), make settings so that two or more
Display units will not start communication all at once.
If communication starts all at once, the communication processing load becomes large and as a
result, communication cannot be made normally.
Please check the followings.
When starting the system, start the External Device and then start the Display.
When starting the Display, make the following settings. When restarting or resetting the external
device during operation, be sure to turn off all Displays once.
• When starting all Displays at a time:
Adjust [Start Time] in [Display Unit] of the GP-Pro EX so that the setting time can be different
in each Display.
• When starting the Displays one by one:
Start from the Displays orderly whose [Start Time] setting is shorter in [Display Unit] of the GP-
Pro EX.
• n:m Connection
• For UDP communication with drivers (Ver.1.12.02 or later), make settings so that two or more
Displays units will not start communication all at once.
If communication starts all at once, the communication processing load becomes large and as a
result, communication cannot be made normally.
Please check the followings.
When starting the system, start the External Device and then start the Display.
When starting the Display, make the following settings. When restarting or resetting the external
device during operation, be sure to turn off all Displays once.
• When starting all Displays at a time:
Adjust [Start Time] in [Display Unit] of the GP-Pro EX so that the setting time can be different
in each Display.
• When starting the Displays one by one:
Start from the Displays orderly whose [Start Time] setting is shorter in [Display Unit] of the GP-
Pro EX.
• Multi-CPU System
• For the CPU unit numbers, the number "1" is assigned to the CPU slot, and any subsequent
units are aligned to the right and assigned "2", "3", "4", in order.
• The multi-CPU system enables you to access a CPU that is not directly connected.
For External Devices that can be used in a multi-CPU system, refer to the External Device
manual.
3 Communication Settings
Examples of communication settings of the Display and the External Device, recommended by Pro-face, are
shown.
• When directly connecting an External Device (1:1 connection) using the cross cable, you
need to set 6 (sec) or more for [Timeout].
• In the case of "n:1" or "n:m" connection, you need to set 3 (sec) or more for [Timeout] and
2 or more for [Retry].
• When communication is made from the Display before the initialization processing in the
External Device is completed, the communication error occurs to the Display. In this case,
adjust the time in [Timeout].
When the motion CPU is used in the multiple CPU system especially, adjust [Timeout] to
10 (sec) or more.
Device Setting
To display the [Individual Device Settings] dialog box, from [Device-Specific Settings] in the [Device/PLC]
window, select the External Device and click [Settings] . To connect multiple External Devices, from
[Device-Specific Settings] in the [Device/PLC] window, click [Add Device] to add another External Device.
Notes
• Check with the network administrator about the IP address.
• Be sure not to duplicate IP addresses on the same network.
• Set the IP address of the External Device under [Individual Device Settings].
• You need to set the IP address of the Display in its offline mode.
9 Click [End].
Notes
• Check with the network administrator about the IP address.
• Be sure not to duplicate IP addresses on the same network.
• When directly connecting an External Device (1:1 connection) using the cross cable, you
need to set 6 (sec) or more for [Timeout].
• In the case of "n: 1" or "n:m" connection, you need to set 3 (sec) or more for [Timeout].
• When communication is made from the Display before the initialization processing in the
External Device is completed, the communication error occurs to the Display. In this case,
adjust the time in [Timeout].
When the motion CPU is used in the multiple CPU system especially, adjust [Timeout] to
10 (sec) or more.
Device Setting

9 Click [End].
Notes
• Check with the network administrator about the IP address.
• Be sure not to duplicate IP addresses on the same network.
4 Setup Items
Set up the Display's communication settings in GP Pro-EX or in the Display's offline mode.
The setting of each parameter must match that of the External Device.
"3 Communication Settings" (page 9)
• You need to set the IP address of the Display in its offline mode.
