And the register setting is also available.
Rules of register setting:
(1) The file number should be unique. This number is set when the register is created, and after the
creation, the file number will be fixed and therefore cannot be modified.
(2) The range of PLC addresses should be greater than the settings of the PT.
(3) The PLC has a limited memory capacity. During downloading, if a message “Program has errors,
cannot download” pops up, it indicates the occurrence of an over-range caused by too many
addresses allocation.
(4) T and C areas do not support the communication system which requires serial addresses
simultaneously.
