Variables
Section 1-3
For example, set a boolean (BOOL) variable (bit) to either 1 (TRUE) or 0
(FALSE). Set a WORD variable to a value between 0 and 65,535 (between
0000 and FFFF hex).
If an initial value is not set, the variable will be set to 0. For example, a bool-
ean variable would be 0 (FALSE) and a WORD variable would be 0000 hex.
Retain
Select the
Retain Option
if you want a variable’s data to be retained when the
PLC is turned ON again and when the PLC starts operating.

Variable Properties and Variable Usage
The following table shows which properties must be set, can be set, and can-
not be set, based on the variable usage.
Note
Inputs can be set as initial values, but the value of the actual input parameter
will be given priority.
1-3-5
Internal Allocation of Variable Addresses
When an instance is created from a function block definition, the CX-Program-
mer internally allocates addresses to the variables. Addresses are allocated
to all of the variables registered in the function block definition except for vari-
ables that have been assigned actual addresses with the
AT Settings
prop-
erty.
Setting Internal Allocation
Areas for Variables
The user sets the function block instance areas in which addresses are allo-
cated internally by the system. The variables are allocated automatically by
the system to the appropriate instance area set by the user.
