Improved screen switching
function
---
Speed and bitmap performance have been
improved for switching screens.
Improved connection opera-
tions
When serial ports A and B were both set for
use for NT Links, “Connecting” was dis-
played if either of the hosts was not con-
nected.
Even if one host is not connected, the mon-
itoring results of the connected host can be
displayed on the screen without “Connect-
ing” being displayed.
SAP Library allocated unit
number and communications
setting information display
SAP Library settings could not be checked
even by displaying addresses using screen
data checking from the System Menu.
The following information can now be dis-
played.
• Command destination port names
• Destination network addresses
• Destination node addresses
• Destination unit numbers
• DeviceNet Slave Unit address and
Inverter node addresses
Bar codes
The maximum length of data that could be
processed by an NS-series PT was 40
bytes.
The maximum data length has been
increased to 254 bytes, allowing the data to
be processed by two-dimensional bar code
readers.
Test screens
---
The following functions have been added to
test screens.
• Zoom
• Always displaying on top
• Starting test screens in the previous dis-
play position and zoom status
DXF files
DXF files could not be accessed.
It is now possible to convert DXF files to
graphics and position them with the CX-
Designer.
Initialization options for alarm/
event history data
When the alarm/event history data was
cleared by using $SB32, all history data
was cleared including current alarms or
events.
System Memory $SW40 has been added
so that it is now possible to specify initializ-
ing cleared or confirmed history data.
Changing host settings with
the System Menu
The settings of a host connected by Ether-
net or Controller Link could not be checked
with the System Menu.
A list of hosts can now be displayed by
selecting Communications Settings from
the System Menu. It is now also possible to
change the host network address, node
address, and host type.
