This paper represents the Input/Output (I/O) serial communication methods between overground and overhead controllers using a programmable logic controller (PLC). In general, the systems composed by overground and overhead controllers use exclusive serial communication units. This, however, has a demerit such as a high cost as well as some restrictions of the system itself. Thus, this paper suggests methods by I/O cards for data communication between overground and overhead controllers. In this system, there is no special card and it therefore has a lower cost and is more flexible than the exclusive serial communication unit.
