Improved/Enhanced Functions

Controllers

Solved the problem that system-defined retained variables cannot be selected as targets of variable/memory backup.

Solved the problem that calculation of memory consumption does not progress if string literal of ST contains "(*", but does not contain "*)".

Solved the problem that variables might not be monitored if array variables of zero-padded element numbers and zero-suppressed element numbers are mixed.

Solved the problem that jump to next variable might fail, if there is variation in writing style of element numbers of array variables.

Improved the edit functions of data type editor. Solved the problem that global variables in inline ST might not be copied by

Copy with Dependents. Solved the problem that presence of unassigned task settings cannot be

detected. Solved the problem that variable element comments cannot be applied by

detailed comparison. Solved the problem that change in namespace of data type might not be applied

to other devices, though sharing setting between devices is enabled. Solved the problem that Sysmac Studio might terminate abnormally if Sysmac

Studio is connected online when data in inline ST is invalid. Solved the problem that project download might take long time after definition

of data type is changed. Solved the problem that variable/memory backup might fail in a project that

contains a variable with variable name starting with "String". Solved the problem that focus moves to Watch Tab Page (Table) after definition

of data type is changed. Solved the problem that the graph of trace target variables might not be

displayed if Independent Y Axis Mode is specified for display format of trace result.

Solved the problem that the correct instance might not be monitored in the FB instance monitor when clicking FB on the ladder rung.

Solved the problem that building a ladder rung with multiple rung branches might cause application errors.

HMI Solved the problem that a recipe registered on the NA might not be

uploaded. Solved the problem that images might not be registered when they are

copied and pasted from other projects. Improved so that the corresponding line is displayed when adding a new

resource. Improved uploading performance.

Safety Solved the problem that variable names might be displayed as entry options

for data types of published variables. Solved the problem that "F" mark is not displayed correctly in FBD editor

when force-refreshing is performed from Watch Tab Page. Solved the problem that force-refreshing can not be executed from FBD

editor while simulator is running. Solved the problem that focus does not move to the function block name

after an empty function block is added on FBD editor. Solved the problem that a user-defined function block might not be inserted

correctly if the function block was dragged and dropped from the toolbox to FBD editor.

Solved the problem that offline comparison of projects containing safety data might not be executed.

Solved the problem that the external variable comment cannot be edited when the tool option "Use global variable comment" is enabled.

Simulator Solved the problem that the MC_Power instruction is not executed in

simulation of NX102. Solved the problem that Sysmac Studio might be shut down when writing

data by Transfer All Variable Present Values. Drives

Supported adjustment method that tracks the position command in Easy Tuning of 1S-series Servo Drive when one-degree-of-freedom control is specified for Control Method.

Improved so that trajectory error can be displayed in two-dimensional plane in operation check step of Easy Tuning (with multiple Servo Drives)
