data to flash memory when these are written to the CPU Unit. I/O memory
(including the DM, EM, and HR Areas), however, is not written to flash mem-
ory. The DM, EM, and HR Areas can be held during power interruptions with a
battery. If there is a battery error, the contents of these areas may not be
accurate after a power interruption. If the contents of the DM, EM, and HR
Areas are used to control external outputs, prevent inappropriate outputs from
being made whenever the Battery Error Flag (A40204) is ON. Areas such as
the DM, EM, and HR Areas, the contents of which can be held during power
interrupts, is backed up by a battery. If a battery error occurs, the contents of
the areas that are set to be held may not be accurate even though a memory
error will not occur to stop operation. If necessary for the safety of the system,
take appropriate measures in the ladder program whenever the Battery Error
Flag (A40204) turns ON, such as resetting the data in these areas.

lead to malfunction, failure, and other unforeseeable problems with the PLC
System. Be sure that the operating environment is within the specified condi-
tions at installation and remains within the specified conditions during the life
of the system.
