How many PV and time events can be set?

(ns-faq-green-9057-spec)

8 PV events and 16 time events. The number of outputs depends on the number of contacts on the model.

In UP550/UP750, the segment switched but the event did not turn OFF.

(ns-faq-green-9059-spec)

The event continues even if both PV and time events extend across 2 segments. If you don't want the event to occur, turn the event OFF at the corresponding segment.

(ns-faq-green-9058-spec)

Turn ON PVT in the setup parameters.

What are the proper uses for meter alarms, PV events, time events, and local events?

(ns-faq-green-9056-spec)

Meter alarms are for outputting alarms regardless of the operation mode. PV and time events are used only during program operation. Local events are action events used only during local operation.

After changing the UT's SP values from the MELSEC via CC-Link, when I change the SP value on the UT main unit, I can't change to the same value as before from the MELSEC.

(ns-faq-ut-2026-connect)

As for individually writing parameters via CC-Link, changing OUT area values constitutes a write request. In your case, since the OUT area value hasn't changed from the previous value, the SP value is notoverwritten. As a fix, periodically copy t...

Can I control chemical dosing?
