DL-CL1 Overview

This unit operates as a remote device station (Ver. 1.1 and 2 switchable) of a CC-Link

system. Using CC-Link communications, the sensor amplifiers and other units con-

nected to the DL-CL1 can transmit their ON/OFF control signals and current values as

communication data to PLC or other equipment.

The DL-CL1 supports cyclic transfer and extended cyclic transfer, enabli

ng data com-

muni

cation without the need of a ladder program. In addition, remote input/output sig-

nals can be used as handshake signals to read/write settings of sensor amplifiers and

to execute motion commands on the sensor amplifiers.

The DL-CL1 can connect multiple sensor amplifiers (a single main unit and multiple

expansion units) which support D-Bus. "D-bus" is the name of KEYENCE's wiring-

saving system for sensor amplifiers.

Different types of sensor amplifiers with D-bus support can be connected to the single

DL-CL1 unit.

How many and what different types of sensor amp

lifiers can be c

onnected depends

on the sensor amplifiers or units to be connected. Please inquire for details.
