164 Programmable Controllers
Greater Efficiency in Team Program Development (Unit Ver. 2.0 or Later Only)
Checking Address Duplication between Tasks
(CX-Programmer Ver. 4.0 or Higher)
The CX-Programmer automatically executes a cross-reference report
that checks whether the same addresses have been used by two or
more tasks (programs) created by two or more people.
Downloading in Task Units
(CX-Programmer Ver. 4.0 or Higher)
When a program has been created by two or more people, each per-
son can use the CX-Programmer to download only the task (program)
they have changed.
Monitoring Operating Status for Each Task
(CX-Programmer Ver. 4.0 or Higher)
The execution status for each task can be monitored from the CX-Pro-
grammer, contributing to improved debugging efficiency.
Task Features
Standardization of Common Processing
Global subroutines are supported that can be called from different
tasks. This enables removing standard programming sections from
individual tasks for execution as global subroutines, greatly reducing
the size of the overall program.
Faster Switching between Tasks
Switching between tasks is faster than ever before to ensure high-
speed cycle times even with structured programming.
Displays the number of
times the address is
used in each of the
programs on the right.
