3.4.1 Cautions for program change
z Operational difference of FX2NC series and FX3UC series
The FX
3UC series can use the same instructions used in the FX2NC series, but the following operations
are different. Depending on the hardware conguration or program contents, check the corresponding
items by correcting or replacing the sequence program or checking operations.

System related
Initial setting
Initial setting of D8008
Program for writing -1
in D8008 is needed for
initialization.
Not needed because
the system is initialized
automatically.
In FX3UC, initial setting in D8008 is
not needed. Please delete the initial
setting program.
Devices monitored by
M8004 for error detection
M8060 to M8067,
except for M8062.
M8060 to M8067,
except for M8062 and
M8063.
If M8004 is used to monitor
M8063, add an additional program
to provide equivalent operation.
High-speed input
32-bit counter specied in
single word instruction
If double words C200
to C255 are specied in
a single word applied
instruction, an operation
error occurs when the
command is executed.
If double words C200
to C255 are specied in
a single word applied
instruction, RUN is not
executed, and a syntax
error occurs. However,
the ZRST command can
designate C200 to C255.
In FX3UC, error detection before
RUN is implemented.
Check the program, and correct so
as to avoid errors.
Pulse catch function
If interrupt is permitted
in EI command only,
the pulse catch function
is valid.
EI command is not
needed. The pulse catch
function is always valid.
In FX
3UC, it must be noted that the
pulse catch function is always valid.
Communication
Clear timing for serial
communication error
M8063 and D8063 devices.
When changed from
STOP to RUN.
When power is turned
OFF.
Not cleared when changed from
STOP to RUN; when necessary to
clear, add an initializing program
using the RST command.

Instruction related
Step ladder program
STL instruction in transfer
and recombination
programs.
If a NOP instruction is
inserted between STL
instructions, transfer
and recombination are
not enabled.
If a NOP instruction is
inserted between STL
instructions, transfer
and recombination are
enabled.
If a NOP instruction is inserted
between STL instructions, replace
it with a dummy program not
containing the NOP instruction and
having no effect on the sequence
operation.
ON condition of STL
operation device M8046.
If S0 to S899 is ON and
M8047 is enabled.
If S0 to S899, S1000
to S4095 is ON when
M8047 is enabled.
Since the object device range
differs, add a program for
initializing S1000 to S4095.
