What is CC-Link Ver. 2.00?
CC-Link will continue to provide the benefits of simplified installation and reduced wiring costs in various automation fields including automotive and semiconductor manufacture, conveyor systems and food processing. In addition to these traditional uses, "CC-Link Ver.2.0" will meet the demand of large volume and deterministic data communication required by areas such as "In-Situ monitor" and "APC" (Advanced Process Control) in semiconductor manufacturing process and "multichannel analog-digital data communication" in instrumentation and control.

Network compatibility
A master station (new version 2.00) is compatible with both new version (2.00) slave stations and current version slave station. (However, current version slave stations can only be used within the specification of the current version. They cannot provide added data volume.)
