with earlier lot numbers cannot be used.
CPU Unit Allocation DM Area Settings
Setting is written from the Programming Device (a Programming Console or
CX-Programmer) directly into the allocation DM area (system setting area) of
the CPU Unit. After the setting is written, it becomes effective by turning the
power ON, restarting the Unit, restarting the communications port, or execu-
tion of the STUP command.
In the following, the channel numbers of the allocation DM area and settings
are shown.
For example, when connecting PTs with model numbers 3, 4, 5, and 6 to port
1, set the value 8200 hex to DM32000, 000A hex to DM32001, and 0006 hex
to DM32006.

Setting the Front Switches
Set the unit number of the Serial Communications Unit by using the rotary
switch located on the front panel. Set each switch with a flat blade screwdriver
so that the values or symbols in the setting value window agree with the fol-
lowing.
Allocation DM Area Settings for CPU Unit
Setting is written from the Programming Device (a Programming Console or
CX-Programmer) directly into the allocation DM area (system setting area) of
the CPU Unit. After the setting is written, it becomes effective by turning the
power ON, restarting the Unit, restarting the communications port, or execu-
tion of the STUP command.
In the following table, the channel numbers of the allocation DM area and set-
tings are shown.
