3.5 COMPATIBILITY WITH CONVENTIONAL MODELS
Insert the following before "2.5.1 Compatibility with the PMCs for the 16i/18i/21i-B"
3.5.1 Compatibility between PMC Memory-A and PMC Memory-B
The sequence program for the PMC Memory-C has highly compatiblity
of the source program with the one for the PMC Memory-A and PMC
Memory-B.
A sequence program for PMC Memory-A or PMC Memory-B can be
used on PMC Memory-C by converting PMC type and changing
addresses R9000 - R9499 to Z0 - Z499, with FANUC LADDER-III.
WARNING
A little difference of execution timing exists between
PMC Memory Types. Therefore, you have to check
again whether the program works correctly after
changing the PMC Memory Types even if the
program worked fine before changing the PMC
Memory Types.
CAUTION
1 In the PMC Memory-C, the System Relay is changed
to Z0-Z499 from R9000-R9499 because the size of
Internal Relay (R Address) is expanded.
2 In the PMC Memory-C, the system used area is
expanded from PMC Memory-A or B about 8KB.
Therefore, available memory size for
Symbol&Comment and Message data is smaller
than PMC Memory-A and B. If the program
overflowed by converting PMC Memory Type, please
decrease the size of Symbol&Comment or Message
data, or upgrade the Ladder step option to larger
size.
PMC Parameter compatibility
PMC parameters outputted from on the PMC Memory-A or PMC
Memory-B can be loaded into the PMC Memory-C without any
modification.
When loading PMC parameters outputted on the PMC Memory-C to the
PMC Memory-A or PMC MEmory-B, the data outside the address range
will be lost.
