|
| *1 |
As for the following connections,
the library that made by the PLC maker doesn't support WindowsVista.(As of June, 2007. )
As for these, operation of DXP2007 on Windows Vista is outside the
guarantee.
- MELSEC EZSocket
- MELSEC Board
- SYSMAC FinsGateway
- TOYOPUC CPU port
|
| *2 |
If the total number of tags used exceeds 10,000, it is recommended that you use 1 GB or more of memory.
|
| *3 |
MELSEC EZSocket Connection and SYSMAC FinsGateway Connection are
necessary by 200MB or more.
|
*4 |
The DDE and SuiteLink interfaces do not support Windows Vista (as of April 2007).

All development languages that can access COM.
When use .NET Framework, use wrapper of COM and .NET.
(the wrapper appended to product)
|
| *2 |
The communication performance decreases when number of PLC connections increases.
When you access ten PLC or more,
it is recommended that you use CPU Hyper Threading CPU or Dual Core CPU.
