MPE720 Project File Management
Manage all of the project files for the Main CPU Unit and Sub CPU Units as separate files.
Sub CPU Unit Calendars
When you turn ON the power supply, the contents of the calendars in the Sub CPU Units will have the
same settings as the calendar in the Main CPU Unit. Therefore, basically it is not necessary to set the cal-
endars in the Sub CPU Units. However, you can use either of the following methods to set the calendars
only in the Sub CPU Units.
• After communications are established between the Sub CPU Unit for which to change the settings with
the MPE720, change the settings from the Environment Setting Dialog Box of the MPE720.

to SW00015 to SW00019 (system registers: calendar).
