Note: Since the RS-232C port is used by the PT, the peripheral port
must be used to make a direct serial connection to the computer.
Note: In order to transfer screen data through the PLC, the PLC must be a CS/CJ-series PLC
with a CPU lot number of 030201 (manufactured February 1, 2003) or later. In addition,
the CPU Unit must be a CS1G-H, CS1H-H, CS1D-S, CJ1M, CJ1G-H, or CJ1H-H. (The
screen data cannot be transferred through a CS1D-H).
