OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS This section gives explanation of instructions in the following order.
(b) On Windows 95, communication using the COM port, e.g. computer link communication or CPU COM communication, will cause a memory leak. Therefore, do not perform continuous operation. R (3) Precautions for the use of Microsoft Windows Millennium Edition Operating System It is not recommended to use MX Component with the "system restoring function" made invalid by the operating system.
(b) If MX Component is uninstalled first on the OS1 side, the control DLLs and ACT folders are deleted. In this case, MX Component may not operate properly or cannot be uninstalled on the OS2 side. Install MX Component again on the OS2 side to operate MX Component properly or uninstall it on the OS2 side. (3) About start menu When you have uninstalled MX Component, the item may remain in the start menu. In that case, restart the IBM-PC/AT compatible personal computer.
(4) Precautions for the use of Q4ARCPU The redundant function cannot be used. (5) Restrictions on use of the FXCPU (a) When the FXCPU is used, access to the TN devices (timer present values) or CN devices (counter present values) is not permitted if the device numbers specified are split across 199 or earlier and 200 or later. (b) As the FXCPU does not have a PAUSE switch as the programmable controller CPU, an error is returned if remote pause is specified in SetCpuStatus.
(2) Precautions for GX Simulator communication Before executing the monitor utility, communication setting utility or user program, make sure that GX Simulator and GX Developer are operating. In addition, do not terminate the GX Simulator and GX Developer while the user program is running. If you do so, you will not be able to terminate the user program normally.
(5) Unlocking password when using QJ71E71 The range where the password can be unlocked by remote operation is up to the connection target station. If the password is set also on the lower layer, communication cannot be made with the programmable controller CPU on the lower layer. Starting source Enter password to unlock. AAAA Ethernet 2) QCPU 1) (Q QJ71 QJ71 mode) E71 E71 Ethernet QCPU 3) (Q QJ71 mode) E71 QCPU 4) (Q QJ71 mode) E71 QCPU 5) (Q QJ71 mode) E71 No.
(d) When two different communication systems (protocols) are used to make access from one IBM-PC/AT compatible to one Q series-compatible E71, two station numbers, i.e. for TCP/IP and for UDP/IP, must be set. However, it is not required to set different station numbers for TCP/IP and UDP/IP when using MX Component Version 3 or later and Q series-compatible E71 with serial No. 05051 or later.
Instructions for the use of MELSECNET(II), MELSECNET/10 and MELSECNET/H (1) About relaying from the MELSECNET/10 loaded station When the module is loaded to the AnNCPU or AnACPU, it is recognized as a MELSECNET(II) module. When the connected station is the AnNCPU or AnACPU, set the relayed network as MELSECNET(II). In addition, set the station number to "0" when making access to the control station.
Instructions for modem communication (1) Simultaneous modem communications It is not allowed to simultaneously perform modem communications using MX Component and other application such as GX Developer. Do not perform a modem communication using other applications during a modem communication using MX Component. If modem communications are simultaneously performed using MX Component and other application, this will result in a communication error, disconnection of telephone line or similar problem.
Instructions for programming (1) About sample programs, test programs and sample sequence programs (a) Sample programs, test programs The sample programs are attached for your reference to create user programs. The test programs are attached to conduct communication tests. Use these programs on your own responsibility. (b) Sample sequence programs The sample sequence programs attached to MX Component must be modified depending on the system configuration and parameter settings.
Instructions for use of Microsoft Excel R (1) Precautions for starting multiple Excel files on Windows Me Note that Windows Me has been confirmed to stop if you run multiple Excel files which use many control objects. * This phenomenon is not attributable to this product.
Instructions for use of Microsoft Access R (1) Precautions for the use of Microsoft Access R (a) When you paste the ACT control to an Access form and double-click the ACT control or select the custom control in the property, the following error message will appear but this does not affect the operation of ACT control. (Other error message may appear.) (b) When you paste the ACT control and display the properties, the property names displayed may be broken.
