Coordinator Module

Section 4-1

System Setup

Flash Memory

The System Setup contains software switches used to make initial settings and other settings. As shown in Appendix C System Setup, Auxiliary Area Allocations, and Built-in I/O Allocations, addresses (words and bits) are allo- cated for settings in the System Setup. The addresses can normally be ignored when making the settings, however, because the settings follow CX- Programmer menus.

When the user writes to the Coordinator Module, the user program, System Setup settings, other parameters, and part of the DM Area are automatically backed up to flash memory.

4-1-2 Coordinator Module Operation

The following flowchart shows the operation of the Coordinator Module. Pro- gramming is executed before I/O is refreshed and peripherals are serviced. This cycle is executed repeatedly.
