Timing of special refreshing
for CPU Bus Units		 Data links for Controller Link Units and SYSMAC LINK Units, remote I/O for DeviceNet Units, and other
special refreshing for CPU Bus Units is performed at the following times:
CJ1M CPU Units: I/O refresh period and when the CPU BUS UNIT I/O REFRESH (DLNK(226)) instruction
is executed.
I/O memory holding when
changing operating modes		 Depends on the ON/OFF status of the IOM Hold Bit in the Auxiliary Area.
Load OFF All outputs on Output Units can be turned OFF when the CPU Unit is operating in RUN, MONITOR, or
PROGRAM mode.
Timer/Counter PV refresh
method		 CJ1M CPU Units: BCD or binary (CX-Programmer Ver. 3.0 or higher).
Input response time setting Time constants can be set for inputs from Basic I/O Units. The time constant can be increased to
reduce the influence of noise and chattering or it can be decreased to detect shorter pulses on the
inputs.
Mode setting at power-up Possible (By default, the CPU Unit will start in RUN mode if a Programming Console is not connected.)
Flash memory (CJ1M CPU
Units only)		 The user program and parameter area data (e.g., PLC Setup) are always backed up automatically in flash
memory. (automatic backup and restore.)
CPU Units with unit version 3.0 or later only:

Online editing When the CPU Unit is in MONITOR or PROGRAM mode, multiple program sections ("circuits") of the
user program can be edited together. This function is not supported for block programming areas.
(With the CX-Programmer is used, multiple program sections of the user program can be edited
together. When a Programming Console is used, the program can be edited in mnemonics only.)

Error log Up to 20 errors are stored in the error log. Information includes the error code, error details, and the
time the error occurred.
A CJ1M CPU Unit can be set so that user-defined FAL errors are not stored in the error log.

Bit status when power to the PLC is turned ON, the contents of the CIO Area, the Work Area, part of
the Auxiliary Area, timer Completion Flag and PVs, Index Registers, and the Data Registers will be saved
for up to 20 days.
Sending commands to a
Host Link computer		 FINS commands can be sent to a computer connected via the Host Link System by executing Network
