2.3 Parallel Operation of NX100

2.3 Parallel Operation of NX100
The NX100 is capable of parallel processing. For instance, it can check signals with program-
ming pendant while saving files to YASNAC FC2, or can edit files with the programming pen-
dant while monitoring operation status by the host control function.
The parallel operation has the following restrictions. When an operation against these restric-
tions is made, a warning message is displayed.
2.3.1 No Multiple-operation of DCI, Stand-alone, and Host
Control Functions
All DCI, stand-alone, and host control use BSC LIKE protocol and the same port, therefore
these functions cannot be performed by parallel processing.
Warning message : Serial port not defined
Warning message : Serial port being used
Warning message : Protocol being used
2.3.2 File Access and Editing for a Single Target
Access to a single target file is available. Parallel processing of reads from two or more
sources is impossible.
During access to a file for other function, the HLOCK command of the host control function
cannot be issued.
Key operations are ignored while the HLOCK command is ON.
Warning message : Data accessed with other functions
