I would like to connect 4 click plc's. One master and three slaves. Can you daisy chain the PLC's. How can you connect them ?

    If you use the C0-01 or C0-02 CPU you can use RS-485 Modbus through Port 3. If you use the C0-00 CPU, you can daisy chain Port 2>Port1, but it's more complex.

    On the master you can use port 2 but it would have to go to a rs232 to rs485 converter. As JoeW said the Clicks with port 3 is the best option, because that port is rs485.
