<FB operating conditions>
System configuration:
One FB is necessary for each external device which is connected by RS-232C or RS-485 to one general purpose
communication module.  However, when RS-232C/RS-485 signal conversion is enabled (the mode selection switch is set
to 4) for the general purpose communication module, each FB is used by two channels.

Note 1: The above memory capacity includes that of non-procedural FB itself as well as of the sub-FB which is called
 from non-procedural FB.
Note 2: “Standard memory” or “Retain memory” includes the memory capacity necessary for data transmissin.
