Version 3.0
Instance ST/Ladder Program Simulation Function
Previous version (Ver. 6.0)
The CX-Simulator could be used to execute a
ladder program step (Step Run), execute steps
continuously (Continuous Step Run), execute a
single cycle (Scan Run), and set I/O break point
conditions.
Improved Function Block Functions
Monitoring ST Programs in Function Blocks
Previous version (Ver. 6.0)
The operation of ST programs within function
block instances could not be monitored while
monitoring the program online.
(It was possible to check the contents of a func-
tion block definition's program and monitor the I/
O status of a function block instance's ladder
diagram.)
Password Protection of Function Blocks
Previous version (Ver. 6.0)
The function block properties could be set to
prevent the display of a function block defini-
tion's program.
The PLC model ("device type") can be set to "NSJ" and the CPU type can be
set to the G5D.
The new models of the FQM1 Flexible Motion Controller are now supported
(i.e., the FQM1-CM002 Coordinator Module and the FQM1-MMA22/MMP22
Motion Control Modules).
The Step Run, Continuous Step Run, Scan Run, and Set/Clear Break
Point functions can be executed as CX-Programmer functions.
All of these functions can be used with ladder programs and ladder/ST
programs in function blocks.
Note The CX-Simulator Ver. 1.6 (sold separately) must be installed in
order to use these functions.
Note I/O break conditions cannot be set.
The status of a function block instance's ST program can be monitored
while monitoring the program.
To monitor the ST program's status, either double-click the function
block instance or right-click the instance and select Monitor FB
Instance from the pop-up menu. At this point, it will be possible to
change PVs and force-set/reset bits.
Note Online editing is not supported.
The following two kinds of password protection can be set.
• Password protection restricting both reading and writing.
• Password protection restricting writing only.
