Besides support for the original DCON protocol, the M-7000 series also offers extended support for the Modbus RTU protocol.
The Modbus protocol was originally developed for Modicon controllers by Modicon Inc.
The M-7000 series modules use the industrial RS-485 communication protocol to transmit and recive data at high speed over long distance.
All Koyo CLICK PLCs and most Koyo DirectLOGIC PLCs support the Modbus RTU protocol and thus can control the M-7000 modules.
