If there is no corresponding communication port, communication port 1 will be set.
No
ANST
The FC6A series does not support ANST instructions. However, the Analog Module setting
set by an ANST instruction will be automatically imported to the module configuration editor
when the model is changed. Modules before and after conversion are as follows.

Precautions on model conversion of Analog Modules
The Analog Module set by an ANST instruction will be automatically imported to the module
configuration editor. However, there are the following precautions. Check the setting after
conversion using the module configuration editor.
• The analog value and status data resister allocation in each channel will change. Allocation in
the FC6A series can be checked using the module configuration editor.
• The filter and scale settings for FC4A-J4CN1, FC4A-J8C1, and FC4A-J8AT1 will be lost.
• The analog input error range settings for FC4A-J4CN1 and FC4A-J8C1 will be lost.
•
If binary data, centigrade, Fahrenheit, and resistance values are selected as the data type,
the analog value range might be changed after conversion.
