■ Intelligent function module parameters
When the intelligent function module data are set, intelligent function module parameters are created.
The intelligent function module parameters consist of initial setting and auto refresh.
The intelligent function module parameters, when written to a programmable controller CPU, operate
as explained below. Write the intelligent function module parameters to the programmable controller
CPU using the Write to PLC function. ( GX Works2 Version 1 Operating Manual (Common))
● Initial setting
The parameters of the individual intelligent function module data are set as initial setting data.
The initial setting data are registered to the programmable controller CPU parameters and
automatically written to the intelligent function module when the programmable controller CPU
turns to the RUN state.
● Auto refresh
If auto refresh is set to the buffer memory of an intelligent function module, data are write/read
automatically to/from the specified devices when the END instruction is executed in the
programmable controller CPU.
For the intelligent function module type and the availability of initial setting/auto refresh setting, refer to
Section 2.1.1.
Item Description
XY Address Display the start XY address of the target intelligent function module.
Module Name Display the model of the target intelligent function module.
Initialization (Count)
Select whether to enable/disable initial setting.
Uncheck the item if it is not set as an intelligent function module parameter.
For a module that has no initial setting, "-" is displayed.
Auto Refresh (Count)
Select whether to enable/disable auto refresh.
Uncheck the item if it is not set as an intelligent function module parameter.
For a module for which auto refresh is not set, "No setting" is displayed.
Intelligent Function Module
Parameter Setting Count Total
Display the number of settable intelligent function module parameters.
Initial Display the number of initial settings set as intelligent function module parameters.
Auto Refresh Display the number of auto refreshes set as intelligent function module parameters.
● When the initial setting and the number of auto refresh settings cannot be changed
In case of the following conditions, the number of initial settings and auto refresh settings can not be changed.
Even when the "Setting Exist" is selected, the display is masked and the check box is not displayed.
