When using the Keyence KV series (EtherNet/IP communication scanner), the names of the connections

with the IV series will be “Monitor/External Input” and “Monitor Data”. The relationship of each connection

name is as described below.

1 : Monitor Data And External Input → Monitor/External input

2 : Monitor Data (Input Only) → Monitor data



The trigger timings of each connection are controlled by the cyclic communications; and both the point-

to-point and Multicast connection types are supported.



If you wish to open “Exclusive Owner” and “Input Only” connections simultaneously, set the connection

type to “Multicast” and match the RPI and the size.



The details of each application type are as described below.

[Exclusive Owner]



This connection allows you to congure the data transmission from the scanner to the IV series, and

vice versa.



This connection type is used when the scanner will not only monitor the data of the IV series but also

provide external input to the IV series.



It is not possible for multiple scanners to open "Exclusive Owner" connections for a single IV series

unit.

[Input Only]



This connection only allows you to congure the data transmission from the IV series to the scanner.



This connection is used when the scanner will only monitor the data of the IV series.



Multiple scanners can simultaneously open “Input Only” connections for a single IV series unit.



If connections will be opened simultaneously from multiple scanners, set the connection type to

“Multicast” and match the RPI and the size.
