I/O Memory Allocation
The CX-Simulator supports only FINS communications for network commu-
nications and does not support the other communications (e.g. socket com-
munications of the Ethernet Unit). The following virtual Network Communica-
tions Units can be used in the CX-Simulator.

Note 1. The Simulator Communications Unit is the CX-Simulator's own commu-
nications unit supporting only FINS communications. When the Controller
Link Unit or Ethernet Unit is not used, this unit will be used (default).
2. This unit is a virtual unit for maintaining the compatibility with
CS/CJ/CP-series PLCs. No settings are required for this unit.
The instruction words related to serial communications that can be used in a
program are shown below.
