Pay close attention to safety and use the built-in Ethernet properly.

installing 10BASE-T or 100BASE-TX networks. Consult a specialist when
connecting cable terminals or installing trunk line cables, etc.
2) Use a connection cable conforming to the standards shown in Subsection

Cautions regarding powering the hub, PLC and Ethernet simultaneously
On some hubs, for a fixed period of time immediately after powering up, even if
packets are sent from the Ethernet device, there are cases when packets are not
sent to the external device. In this case, create a sequence program that waits a
sufficient amount of time after powering up before sending packets.
