• If a processing unit is inserted, the numbers for the subsequent processing units increase by 
one. With processing items related to results output or branch control, the numbers for pro-
cessing units set as references also automatically increase by one.
• If a button other than [Paste] is clicked after pasting a processing unit, continued pasting of 
the processing item cannot be performed.
• If a processing unit is deleted, the numbers for the subsequent processing units decrease by 
one. With processing items related to results output or branch control, the numbers for pro-
cessing units set as references also automatically decrease by one.
• To hide a specific processing unit in the flow on an adjustment window or run window, insert 
a "*" (single byte) at the beginning of the processing unit name.
• With the FZ-L series and FZ-600 series, the number of units that can be set in a flow 
depends on the available data memory.
With the FH series or FZ5-800/1100/1200 series, a warning message is displayed when the 
amount of available application memory falls below 1 GB. Adjust the inspection flow so that 
the available memory is more than 1 GB.
Refer to 3-4 Checking the Memory Consumption and Percentage of Memory Used on page 
3-31 and 3-3 Checking System Information on page 3-27.
• When copying and pasting a conditional branch processing unit or other processing unit that 
refers to another processing units, the branch destination of the pasted processing unit is ini-
tialized to [End processing]. When pasting whole processing units within a folder, a paral-
lelization processing unit, or a parallelized task processing unit, references from inside the 
pasted block to outside the block are initialized to [End processing].
When copying and pasting a calculation processing unit or other processing unit that refers to 
another processing unit, the content of the expression of the pasted processing unit becomes 
#ERR. When pasting whole processing units within a folder, a parallelization processing unit, 
or a parallelized task processing unit, references from inside the pasted block to outside the 
block become #ERR.
• Turning measurement execution ON/OFF for a folder, a parallelization processing unit or a 
parallelized task processing unit turns measurement execution ON/OFF for all processing 
units within the folder, the parallelization processing unit or the parallelized task processing 
unit.
• When [ON] is set for [Parallel Execute] in [Operation mode setting] in the system settings, 
turning the measurement execution setting ON/OFF for a processing unit may greatly 
change the processing time. In this case, use parallelization processing items to parallelize 
the measurement flow instead of using automatic parallel processing. 
For details, refer to 4-4-2 Parallel Processing on page 4-29.
• When measurement execution has been set to OFF for a processing unit that is a conditional 
branch destination, processing is executed starting with the first processing unit set to ON 
after the branch destination processing unit.
• When you set *(half-width asterisk) to the front of processing unit name, its processing unit is 
not displayed on the Flow window.
• Overall judgement result of the processing units that are set in the folder is displayed in the 
folder unit. However, if a Conditional branch is set to branch outside the folder, the folder unit 
will display as OK.
