Unit Number
Network Address
The routing tables register the paths to destination networks and the addresses for the
nodes in FINS communications. The routing tables are required when transferring
data between networks by message communications or other functions, or switching
the destination PLC in the network accessed from a Programming Device or ladder
program instruction.
Set the routing tables in the PLCs as required. Refer to 3-1-2 Network Conditions That
Require Routing Tables for details on the cases when routing tables are required.
Routing tables consist of the following two tables.
1) Local network table
2) Relay network table
The local network table lists the unit numbers of the Communications Units mounted
in each PLC, and the network addresses of the connected networks. When data is
being transferred from the PLC to a destination network address, the local network
table indicates which Communications Unit can be used to send data to the
destination network address.
The local network table is stored in the CPU Unit, and it is possible to switch the
destination network first accessed from a Programming Device or ladder program
instruction.
This value (0 to 15) is set with the rotary switches on the front of each

Communications Unit is connected.
When two or more Communications Units are mounted in a single PLC, the CPU
Unit uses the local network table to identify the Communications Units and
associated networks.
The local network table is required when two or more Communications Units are
mounted in a single PLC, or data will be transferred across network levels.
When transferring data between networks, the relay network table indicates how
to relay a received message to reach the final destination node.
The relay network table is required when data will be transferred across network
levels.
