A-1-1 Description of CPS Files
CPS File Overview
CPS is an abbreviation of Component and network Profile Sheet, which contain the
definitions of CS/CJ-series Units and Components required in the CX-One applications.
The definitions are provided in CPS file format (XML file format).
CX-One applications use the information in these CPS files to recognize the
CS/CJ-series Units. The CPS files are also used to create the Special I/O Unit and
CPU Bus Unit settings.
CPS files contain the following CS/CJ-series Unit and component information.
• ID information (Model number, product name, Unit type, Unit version, etc.)
• Parameter items (Offset address, parameter name, and setting range or selections)
