8-6. Versions of Programming Tools
1. Differences Between NPST-GR Ver. 2.4 and 3.1
NPST-GR Software Ver. 3.1 is designed to support all the functions of the FP1 programmable controllers described
in this manual. However, compared with previous NPST-GR Software, version 3.1 requires an additional system. For
this reason, NPST-GR Ver. 2.4 has been introduced for computers without the system required for Ver. 3.1.
The differences in functions and requirements between NPST-GR Ver. 2.4 and 3.1 are explained in the table below.
