Appendix 3 Special Register
The special register (SD) is an internal register whose application is fixed in the
programmable controller. For this reason, the special register cannot be used in the
same way as other internal registers are used in sequence programs. However,
data can be written to the special register to control the CPU module as needed.
Data is stored in binary format if not specified.
The following shows how to read the items in the list.
For details of special registers, refer to QCPU User's Manual Hardware Design,
Maintenance and Inspection.
Item Description
Number • Indicates the special register number.
Name • Indicates the special register name.
Meaning • Indicates the contents of the special register.
Explanation • Indicates the detailed contents of the special register.
Set by
(When set)
• Indicates the setting side and setting timing of the special register.
<Set by>
S : Set by the system
U : Set by user (in sequence program or test operation at a peripheral
device)
S/U : Set by both system and user
<When set>
indicated only if setting is done by system.
Every END processing : Set during every END processing
Initial : Set during initial processing (after power-on or
status change from STOP to RUN)
Status change : Set when the operating status is changed
Error : Set if an error occurs
Instruction execution : Set when an instruction is executed
Request : Set only when there is request from a user
(through SM, etc.)
When system is switched : Set when the system is switched (between the
control system and the standby system)

□□□
• Indicates special register (D9
□□□) supported by the ACPU.
("D9
□□□ format change" indicates the one whose application has been
changed. Incompatible with the Q00J/Q00/Q01, and QnPRH.)
• "New" indicates the one added for the Q-series CPU.
Corresponding
CPU
Indicates the CPU module supporting the special relay.
QCPU : All the Q-series CPU modules
Q00J/Q00/Q01 : Basic model QCPU
Qn(H) : High Performance model QCPU
QnPH : Process CPU
QnPRH : Redundant CPU
QnU : Universal model QCPU
CPU module name : Only the specified CPU model (Example: Q02U)

POINT
Do not change the values of special registers set by the system using a
program or by test operation.
Doing so may result in a system down or communication failure.
