9.2 C Controller Setting Utility
This section explains the operation of the C Controller setting utility.
The following are the precautions for use of the C Controller setting utility.
(1) Maximum number of concurrently applicabe C Controller setting utilities
Up to 8 C Controller setting utilities can be activated used at the same time.
(2) Precautions for writing parameters
Parameter written to the C Controller module become effective when the C Controller
module is powered off and then on or is reset.
(3) Precautions for connection from multiple C Controller setting utilities to
the same C Controller module
Connection can be made from multiple C Controller setting utilities to the same C
Controller module.
In this case, each of the C Controller setting utilities may have different parameters.
To make all of the C Controller setting utilities have the same parameters, read the
parameters from the C Controller module to each C Controller setting utility.
(4) Tabs available in offline mode
When the connection status of the C Controller setting utility is offline, only the items
on the <<System setting>>, <<I/O assignment setting>>, and <<Multiple CPU
setting>> tabs.
(5) Exiting Microsoft Windows
Do not terminate Microsoft Windows while the C Controller setting utility is
running.
Exit Microsoft Windows after terminating the C Controller setting utility.
(6) Connection during script file execution
While script file processing is being executed (the RUN LED is flashing), access may
not be made from each utility to the C Controller module.
In such a case, connect each utility to the C Controller module after terminating the
script file processing.
