5.3.2 Setting the Number of Global Registers
Defining global registers can reduce the need for communications, but it requires managing
the global registered used in ladder logic programs and motion programs.
There are limits on the global registers (M and O registers) that can be used in motion pro-
grams. Motion programs that use registers that are out of the specified ranges will cause
compiler errors to prevent mistakes in programming.
An example of an M register map is shown below. O registers depending on the I/O registers
allocated in the Module Configuration Definitions Window.
