The Ease of Changing Designs Makes It Simple to Add or Upgrade Equipment.

There is little effect on address changes. Previously, when data was exchanged by address specifi cation and addresses were changed, the program had to be changed at other Controllers and various operations, such as memory checks, had to be performed. Now, tag names eliminate the dependence on a memory map and the need for checking items affected by changes. This allows equipment to be easily added or upgraded.

Assurance of Quality, Free from Mistakes.

Tags can be shared among the CJ2 CPU Units, NS-series PTs and Middleware. Tag names can be shared among controllers that exchange data using the CX-One or Excel import/export functions. Because redundant address entry and address allocation are not needed, checking is also not required. This makes it easy to construct high-quality systems.
