= Storage is possible
= Storage is not possible
A program stored in the standard ROM or memory card (RAM or ROM) is transferred to the
program memory at power-on and executed in the program memory. Hence, if the program is
stored in the standard ROM or memory card (RAM or ROM), the program memory needs suffi-
cient free space to accept that program.
For use of the debugging data for trace function, a failure history or a general-purpose file, the
memory card must be loaded.
Overview of the data that can be stored
–
Program
Ladder, list or SFC sequence program file. When running multiple programs, multiple pro-
gram files are also stored in memory.
–
Parameters
File storing PLC parameters and network parameters set during programming.
–
Special function module parameter
Parameter file set using the GX Configurator. This file does not exist if you do not use the
setting made with the GX Configurator.
–
Device comment
File of device comments annotated to each device of the CPU. This file does not exist if
device comments are not created.
–
Device initial value
List of values given to devices in the CPU module at power-on. This file does not exist if
device initial values are not used.
–
File Register
File register (R, ZR) file. Setting different file names allows multiple file register files to be
stored. Note that file registers can be stored in a ROM memory card (drive 2) but not in an
ATA card (Q2MEM-8MBA/16MBA/32MBA). The file registers stored in a flash memory
card allow read only in the program and do not allow data changes in the program.
–
Local devices
Local devices are devices exclusively used with the corresponding programs in the pres-
