The DEKWELL EX-1040 is a CC-Link bus adapter, and each adapter can be expanded to support up to 32 input/output modules.
The CL-HH00-C1NN is a CC-LINK bus integrated module that supports 16 digital inputs (NPN & PNP) and 16 digital outputs (PNP).
This article will introduce the operation process of configuring and applying the Deckerwell EX card-type I/O module and FS integrated module with a Mitsubishi PLC.

03. Equipment Configuration
I. New Project and Communication Parameter Configuration
Open the GX-Works2 software, select the actual CPU model in the field, and then go to "Parameters" > "Network Parameters" > "CC-Link" in the left navigation bar of the project. Configure the CC-Link slave settings in the CC-Link parameter settings window, as shown in Figure 3. The CC-Link network parameters are shown in Figure 4.

II. Configure slave station information
In the CC-Link parameter settings interface, select "Station Information" to configure parameters such as station type, as shown in Figure 5.
(Figure 5)
III. The configuration rules for EX-1040 as a remote device station are as follows:
The CC-Link adapter EX-1040 is configured as a remote device station in the Mitsubishi GX-works software. Each station has 32 points. This can be set according to the specific I/O points connected to the EX-1040 by the user. A maximum of 4 logical stations can be set, with each logical station containing 32 points. A maximum of 4×(32DI+32DO+4AI+4AO) can be connected.
The FS series CC-Link protocol remote I/O modules serve as CC-Link remote I/O stations. Each module occupies 32DI and 32DO (as specified by the Mitsubishi CC-Link protocol). Module address allocation and usage are as follows.
04. Precautions
I. DIP switch parameter definition (applicable to EX series)
The CC-Link remote I/O adapter supports two logic station settings, determined by the first and last five bits of the baud rate DIP switch.
The first five digits of the DIP switch correspond to five communication rates, with a fixed four logic stations (the number cannot be changed by default). When the DIP switch is set to the last five digits, the number of logic stations can be changed according to actual needs, while the communication rates still correspond to the rates of the first five digits. The logic stations can be flexibly configured as needed. A group of 16 digital inputs/outputs constitutes one logic station, and a group of 4 analog inputs/outputs constitutes one logic station.
For example: when five EX-1040 units are connected to the PLC, and one EX-1040 unit is connected to EX-210H, EX310H, EX-4414, and EX-5414, and the other two units are configured similarly, the communication speed needs to be adjusted according to the master station, as shown in Table 6.

II. Terminating Resistor
A terminating resistor (110Ω) is added to both ends of the network. The connection method of the terminating resistor is shown in Figure 7 below.
