A-10 Memory Usage Guidance For Pro-
cessing Items
Free space is required in the application memory or data memory (FH-L series/FZ5-600 series
Sensor Controller only) in order to add a processing unit to the measurement flow. The amount
of free space required in memory consists of both the amount necessary to add a processing
unit to the measurement flow, and the amount necessary to configure settings for the added
unit and execute measurement.
When adding a new processing unit to the measurement flow, or if the memory becomes insuf-
ficient when settings are configured, refer to the table below for the approximate amount of
memory used and delete a processing unit from the measurement flow or adjust the processing
unit settings.
The amount of used memory and free data memory can be checked from the menu of Memory
Consumption Monitor on the Measurement Management Bar or the system menu.
Refer to 3-4 Checking the Memory Consumption and Percentage of Memory Used on page
3-31 and 3-3 Checking System Information on page 3-27.
To adjust each processing unit, refer to the section for each processing item in the Processing
Item Function Reference Manual. (Refer to Processing Item Function Reference Manual (Cat.
No. Z341))
