Overview of User-defined Addresses
Data addresses for communication can be defined for this device. Data addresses of parameters that are frequently
used for communication have already been set at the factory.
Note
•
9 - 3 Initial Values of User-Defined Addresses (p. 9-11).
•
For pattern communication data, data addresses are set using a different method
from that for parameters.
9 - 5 Pattern Communication Data (p. 9-15).

User-defined addresses
The characteristics of user-defined addresses are given below.
Data address format
Decimal number (setting with hexadecimal numbers is
also possible.)
Data address setting range
0 to 49999
(0 is an invalid address.)
Parameter
Data addresses can be set for parameters for setting or
monitoring.
Data addresses can be set for almost all parameters of
this device.
Decimal point position
0: 0 digits after the decimal point
1: 1 digit after the decimal point
2: 2 digits after the decimal point
3: 3 digits after the decimal point
4: 4 digits after the decimal point
5 to 9: Invalid
10: 0 digits after the decimal point, RAM area
11: 1 digit after the decimal point, RAM area
12: 2 digits after the decimal point, RAM area
13: 3 digits after the decimal point, RAM area
14: 4 digits after the decimal point, RAM area
The number of digits after the decimal point necessary
to convert the parameter into data for communication
(integers).
Example: When a parameter of 12.34 is converted
to an integer with 1 digit after the decimal point, for
communication purposes the parameter is converted
to 123.
Number of definitions
200 max.
Handling Precautions
•
If the version of the MAIN block firmware is earlier than 5.x.x (where x stands
for any number), settings 0 to 4 are enabled and 10 to 14 (in RAM) are invalid
for the decimal point position.
•
Settings 5 to 14 for the decimal point position may be invalid, depending
on the parameter type. Only the parameters that can be set in SLP-C7 are
enabled.
