Note
: The PLC connected to the computer must be a CS/CJ-series PLC
with unit version 4.0 or later.
A wider variety of programming languages is being used along with
the greater diversity of PLC applications.
With the CX-Programmer (CX-One), support for sequential function charts (SFC)
improves program readability.
(See note.)
Compare function block (FB) definitions in detail to
easily manage changes.
Program Conversion from C500/C120/C P.
Easily Handle Demands for Equipment Changes!
Sequential Function Charts
Function Block Comparison
Using structured text (ST) programming in tasks amazingly
simplifies numerical processing.
(See note.)
Structured Text
Enhanced program comparison enables detailed comparison of function blocks and structured text!
Easily Replace Your PLCs with CP1L/H, CJ1, or CS1 PLCs
Sequential function charts (SFC) is a language used to express the flow of process steps as graphical charts that combine steps and transitions. SFC complies with the IEC 61131-3 standard.
Structured text (ST) is a high-level language for industrial control that allows programming numerical processing and repetition processing more simply than ladder diagrams. ST complies with the IEC 61131-1 standard.
Support for sequential function charts and structured text provides for a variety of
programming language environments.
Supported
for unit version
4.0 or later.
Support is provided with CS/CJ-series PLCs with unit
version 4.0 or later.
To acquire a CS/CJ-series PLC with unit version 4.0,
contact your OMRON representative.

The flow of process step programming
is difficult to understand with ladder
programming. Plus, interlocks and
jumps are required.
Until now, it has not been possible to
see the results of detailed comparison
of ladder programming in function
block (FB) definitions. This made it
difficult to manage changes in function
blocks.
Using ladder programming to write
numerical processing is complicated. The
number of inputs increases and it takes a
lot of time to write averages or values for
hundreds of measurement values.
Using SFC enables understanding
the line structure and the process
flow at a glance!
Programming can be made that follows
the process flow.
The processes that are being executed
can be understood at a glance, which
simplifies monitoring process status.
Programming each process separately
helps to achieve structured programs
and makes programming easier to reuse.
Detailed comparison of function
block definitions can be performed
from CX-Programmer version 7.2.
Ladder programming, ST, and
changes in variables in FB definitions
can be checked in detail.
Temporarily backing up C500/C120/C P-series programs
to a computer, such as is required when replacing Units,
was possible only when the PLC was online with the
computer. Working online was not possible when
converted to other models.
With C500/C120/C P-series PLCs, only the programs
could be backed up, but not data from the DM or HR
Areas.
Files backed up on a computer from C500/C120/C P-series
PLCs can be converted to projects for the CP1L/M, CJ1, CS1,
or CVM1. Of course, work can be performed online.
With C500/C120/C P-series PLCs, only the programs could
be backed up, but the backup function has been expanded to
now include programs, DM Area data, and HR Area data.
CX-One version 2.1 can be used to change models to the
CP1L, which is ideal for updating small machinery and
equipment.
Using ST, writing a program to
average hundreds of points
requires only a few lines!
The ability to write repetition processing
and judgment processing in only a few
lines greatly shortens the time required
for programming.
Text string data is can be used. Measured
thickness data or other text string data
can be easily analyzed.
