Data Register and File Register [D]
Data registers are devices for storing numeric data. File registers are handled as the initial values of data registers.
Each data register or file register stores 16-bit data (whose most significant bit specifies the positive or negative sign).
Two data registers combined or file registers can store 32-bit numeric data (whose most significant bit specifies the
positive or negative sign).
→
For the functions and operations of file registers, refer to Subsection 4.9.4.
4.9.1
Numbers of data registers and file registers

*1.
This area is not latched (battery backed). It can be changed to the latched (battery backed) area by setting
parameters.
*2.
This area is latched (battery backed). It can be changed to the non-latched (non-battery-backed) area by
setting parameters.
*3.
The latch (battery backup) characteristics cannot be changed using parameters.
*4.
Data registers D1000 and later can be used as file registers in units of 500 points by setting parameters.
*5.
These registers can be changed to the latched type by the parameter setting when the optional battery is
used. However, the latched range cannot be set.
When computer link PCs or parallel link is used, some data registers are occupied for the link.
