The common variables (#500 to #549) can be input and output.
(When the option for adding a common variable is specified, values
from #500 to #999 can be input and output.) #100 to #149 can be
input when bit 3 (PV5) of parameter No. 6001 is set to 1. (When the
option for adding a common variable is specified, values from #100 to
#199 can be input and output.)
