OPERATING PRECAUTIONS
This section provides the following precautions.
(1) Precautions for system configurations
(a) Supported modules
In a system configuration where a C Controller module is used, some main and
extension base units cannot be used ( Page 2-16, Section 2.1.6), and also
use of some modules is restricted by their function versions ( Page 2-17,
Section 2.2).
(b) Multiple CPU system
1) Applicable CPU modules
For the CPU modules that can be used with a C Controller module in a multiple
CPU system, refer to the following.
Page 11-11, Section 11.2.1
2) MT Developer connection (Version 00Y or earlier) in a multiple CPU system
When a multiple CPU system includes a C Controller module set as CPU No.1
and a Motion CPU, a communication test of MT Developer (Version 00Y or
earlier) cannot be performed. (The Motion CPU communication test error
(error code: 12288) will occur.)
To perform the communication test from MT Developer, use either of the
following methods.
• Use MT Developer Version 00Z or later.
• When using MT Developer Version 00Y or earlier, modify the multiple
CPU system configuration so that CPU No.1 is a programmable controller
CPU.
(c) Time adjustment and time notification of GOT
In a multiple CPU system configuration, when time adjustment or time notification
is performed in a GOT connected to C Controller modules for CPU No. 2 to No. 4,
it is executed to CPU No. 1.
In this case, to match the clock data between the C Controller modules assigned
to CPU No. 2 to No. 4 and the GOT, use the multiple CPU clock synchronization
function.

(d) Connection with GX Works2/GX Developer
For the connection with GX Works2/GX Developer, refer to the following.
