Transfer to computer from a DeviceNet network can 
be resumed! 

The maximum number of Controller Link data link send 
words per node has been increased from 1,000 to 4,000! 

Easier Adjustment for Temperature and 
Process Control!

If communications fail when uploading DeviceNet network data (slave 
data) using the CX-Integrator, uploading can be resumed from the point 
where failure occurred, thereby greatly shortening the time for 
transferring network data to the computer. 

Support is provided for Controller Link Units (

soon to be released

), which 

have increased the maximum number of send/receive words per Unit 
fourfold from the previous 1,000 words to 4,000 words when data links 
are used (see note). This can be used to increase the amount of data 
shared between PLCs, such as for exchanging data on quality.

: CS1W-CLK13/23/53, CJ1W-CLK23, and 3G8F7-CLK13/23/53.

Version 3.2 of the CX-Thermo

Now, settings of parameters being 
monitored in the Trend View Window can be 
changed. 

Easier Memory Allocation for the EJ1 and PLCs 

Now, parameter selections and memory 
allocations for programless communications 
of the EJ1 and PLCs can be set in a table 
while viewing the PLC memory address. 

Ethernet

Routing tables can be transferred from one location to 
multiple PLCs!

Routing tables can be set and transferred from one PLC to other PLCs on a network without reconnecting cables. (See note.) 

Transferring routing tables is easy using a direct 
Ethernet connection! 

Routing tables can be transferred from a computer to a PLC connected with an Ethernet cable.

The Popular Automatic Online Connection to PLCs Is Now Even Easier! 

The computer's serial ports are automatically searched when an automatic online connection is used, 
so it is no longer necessary to individually specify the port used.

Setting and transferring routing tables 
required a lot of time onsite to 
reconnect the cables for each PLC. 

Routing tables can be set and 
transferred from a PLC in just one 
location!

Work is greatly simplified by the ability 
to set and transfer routing tables from 
one location to all the PLCs on a 
network of the same layer. 

The computer port (e.g., COM2 or COM3) 
had to be specified using a separate menu 
command for selecting the connection port 
when an automatic online connection was 
performed with the PLC connected to the 
computer's USB port (except for COM1). 

No communications port settings are 
required! Only the connectable 
communications ports are displayed, 
so online connection is easy. 

Online connection can be easily made with 
two clicks of the mouse. There's no need to 
worry whether online connection at the 
worksite will be possible when an error occurs. 

Routing tables can be transferred 
with the PLCs connected to an 
Ethernet network. 

Routing tables can be transferred from 
the computer to a PLC using an 
Ethernet cable. No work is required for 
reconnecting Peripheral Cables onsite. 

A separate Peripheral Cable was 
required to transfer routing tables when 
the computer and the PLC were directly 
connected using Ethernet. Work for 
making routing table settings onsite 
was troublesome.

connection

Note

: Routing tables cannot be set across network layers (same as 

          previously). 
          The PLC connected to the computer must be a CS/CJ-series PLC 
          with unit version 4.0 or later. 

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.
