System Registers FP0 Hardware System Registers System registers are used to set values (parameters) which determine operation ranges and functions used. Set values based on the use and specifications of your program. There is no need to set system registers for functions which will not be used. The explanations in this chapter often utilize NPST–GR conventions.
FP0 Hardware System Registers Using FPWIN Pro Procedure: 1. Set the mode of the FP0 control unit to PROG. 2. Project Navigator –> PLC –> System Register. 3. To change a set value, write the new value as indicated in the system register table.
System Registers FP0 Hardware is changed from PROG. to RUN. With regard to the modem connection setting, when the power is turned on or when the mode is changed from PROG. to RUN, the controller sends a command to the modem which enables it for reception. When the initialized operation is performed, all set system register values (parameters) will be initialized.
