2) Basic Parameter
The basic parameters are necessary for the operation of the PLC and used to allocate memory, set the restart mode and
watchdog timer duration, etc
(1) Configuration(PLC) Name
• It is a representative name for the PLC system. It is used to designate this PLC system when a network system is
configured using communication modules.
(2) Enabling/Disabling the control of the PLC via communications
• This parameter is used to enable or disable the remote control of this PLC system through the FAM or computer link
module, etc. except for the GMWIN. If this parameter has been set to enable, change of the operation mode and
download of programs are available via communications.
(3) Restart Mode
• This parameter is used to set the restart mode in the PLC system.
When the system re-starts, one of the ‘cold restart’ or ‘warm restart’ is selected in compliance with the parameter setting.
(4) Resource(CPU) properties
• Resource Name is the name that each CPU module configuring the PLC has. When configuring a network system the
name is used to designate each CPU module that is used the system.
• Only one CPU module can be mounted in the GM7U series, therefore, only the resource 0 is valid.
