5.5.8.2 Setting the Number of Device Points
After creating an area (project) to manage sequence programs, set the number of the devices used in the project at first. This
operation is required every time a new project is created.
For details on each setting item, refer to the "PLC Programming Manual".
Note
Without this operation, an error occurs when sequence programs are downloaded to the CNC controller.
(1) Select [Device] tab.
Populate the device points in the parameter with the numbers of device points + common points that are set on the device
setting screen in built-in PLC (built-in edit function). Setting wrong device points incurs an error. The range of devices that
can be used in each project varies in multi-project environment.
(2) Enter the number of the devices, and click [End] on the following screen.
Enter the number of devices in the project currently connected to inside the red line indicated in the figure below. When all
device points are set, press [End] to end editing.
Note
If the wrong number is set, downloading to the CNC controller fails with an error.
