Differences between the NT30/NT30C and the NT31/NT31C and
Differences between the NT620S/NT620C/NT625C and the
NT631/NT631C
This section explains the differences in screen creation and programming between the NT30/NT30C and the
NT31/NT31C as well as the NT620S/NT620C/NT625C and NT631/NT631C. The -V2 or -V3 versions of the
NT31/NT31C and NT631/NT631C are described here. For details of the differences between different versions of
the NT31/NT31C and NT631/NT631C, refer to Differences between NT31/NT31C and NT631/NT631C Models
without the -V1 Suffix and Models with -V1 (page 445) or Differences between -V1 and -V2/-V3 NT31/NT31C and
NT631/NT631C PTs (page 447).
Refer to 1-2 Functions of the NT21, NT31/NT31C, and NT631/NT631C for details on functional differences be-
tween the PT models (page 4).
Reference: The NT30/620 compatible mode can be used to reduce the differences with the
NT30, NT30C, NT620S, NT620C, and NT625C and allow their screen data and
user programs to be reused easily. Refer to Appendix C for details (page 451).
