18-2 Overview of CX-Programmer
This section describes the preparations that must be completed before a ladder program can be cre-
ated, including connecting the CP1E to the computer and installing the USB driver.
18-2-1 CX-Programmer
The CX-Programmer is a programming application for creating the ladder programs that are executed in
a CP1E CPU Unit.
In addition to ladder program creation, the CX-Programmer also has functions that are needed to set up
and operate the CP1E, including functions for debugging ladder programs, displaying addresses and
present values, monitoring, setting the connected PLC, programming, and monitoring.
The CX-Programmer has fewer sub-menus, making it relatively simple.
The installation of the CX-Programmer is described in 4-1-5 Installing the Software in the CP1E CPU
Unit Hardware User's Manual (Cat. No. W479).
For details on the operation of the CX-Programmer, refer to the CX-Programmer Online Help.
