CHAPTER 1
Technical Specifications
This chapter describes the CX-Programmer software in general terms and provides details of the operating
environment and minimum configuration necessary for the satisfactory operation of CX-Programmer.
CX-Programmer Software
CX-Programmer is a PLC programming tool for the creation, testing and maintenance of programs associated
with OMRON CS/CJ/CP-series PLCs, CV-series PLCs and C-series PLCs. It provides facilities for the support
of PLC device and address information and for communications with OMRON PLCs and their supported
network types.
CX-Programmer operates on IBM compatible personal computers with Pentium or better central processors,
including Pentium II. It runs in a Microsoft Windows environment (Microsoft Windows 95, 98, Millennium,
2000, XP, NT4.0 with Service Pack 5 or later, or Vista).
About this Manual
This User Manual acts as a reference for CX-Programmer by describing its various concepts and abilities, and
by leading the user through the basics of CX-Programmer programming. It also provides a detailed reference for
all of the CX-Programmer functions.
Separate OMRON manuals describe the PLC programming structure and instruction set in detail. A separate
OMRON manual describes the common features to PLC programming used by software other than CX-
Programmer.
CX-Programmer comes with a context sensitive on-line help system which is designed to
complement this manual and to provide a quick reference at any point while using CX-
Programmer when the manual is not to hand. This general help system uses a fast ‘hypertext
system’ which allows progressively more information about any topic to be obtained by
selecting keywords within the descriptive text.
Throughout this manual it is assumed that the reader has a working knowledge of Microsoft Windows, and
knows how to:
♦
Use the keyboard and mouse.
♦
Select options from Microsoft Windows menus.
♦
Operate dialog boxes.
♦
Locate, open and save data files.
♦
Edit, cut and paste text.
♦
Use the Microsoft Windows desktop environment.
If Microsoft Windows has not been used before, it is recommended that the reader spends some time working
with it using the Microsoft documentation before using CX-Programmer.
This manual also assumes that a working knowledge of OMRON PLC devices has been obtained.
CX-Programmer Features
CX-Programmer is a support tool for the programming of OMRON PLCs and for maintenance of their device
settings. It supersedes the OMRON applications SYSWIN and SYSMAC-CPT.
The following list describes important features that were present in CX-Programmer 2.1.
♦
Support for new PLCs – Full support has been added for the, CS1G-H, CS1H-H and CJ1G, CJ1G-H, CJ1H-
H series PLCs and the D/S Gateway PLC (CPM2*-S*).
♦
Flash ROM backup – Flash ROM backup is supported for the PLCs incorporating this feature.
♦
Find and Replace – Enhanced and extended Find and Replace functionality. The GUI has been enhanced to
include the scope of the search i.e. whether the Section, Global symbol and/or the Local symbol will be
affected by the search.
