in any PLC area or PT internal memory area. The display status of objects can be changed and the PT
status can be controlled and notified by directly writing to and reading from addresses during PT op-
eration.

Reference
♦ If the address exceeds the setting range as a result of an index being specified, the address will be
invalid and communications will not be processed.
♦ Refer to 2-4 System Memory in the NS Series Programming Manual for details on system memory.
Enter the addresses to be set. The address can be entered directly. Alternatively, click the
Setting Button and enter the address in the displayed dialog box. If an invalid address is
entered, an error message will be displayed when the OK Button is pressed. Invalid addresses
cannot be set.
The index setting function is used to allow the addresses allocated to objects to be
changed by changing the index attached to a specified area. These variables are called
index setting. This enables one object to refer to many addresses. Area types, however,
cannot be changed with an index.
There are 10 index settings available (I0 to I9).
Change the contents of system memory to change index setting. ($SW27 to $SW36)
Example Using Indexes
