I/O Memory Areas Section 9-2
Note 1. The I/O Area can be expanded to CIO 0000 to CIO 0999 by changing the
first words allocated to Racks.
2. Bits can be manipulated using TST(350), TSTN(351), SETB(532),
RSTB(533), OUTB(534).
3. Index registers and data registers can be used either individually by task
or they can be shared by all the tasks (CJ1-H and CJ1M CPU Units only).
4. Timer PVs can be refreshed indirectly by forced setting/resetting Timer
Completion Flags.
5. Counter PVs can be refreshed indirectly by forced setting/resetting
Counter Completion Flags.
6. CJ1-H and CJ1 CPU Units only.
7. The Function Block Holding Area words are allocated from H512 to H1535.
These words can be used only for the function block instance area (inter-
nally allocated variable area).
8. If the I/O Memory Hold Flag (A50012) is turned ON, the memory values
will be maintained when the operating mode is changed. If, in addition, the
PLC Setup is set to hold the status of the I/O Memory Hold Flag at startup
(IOM Hold Bit parameter), the memory values will be maintained when the
power supply is turned ON.
