NOTE
1 Condense mode
Condense mode has the following advantages.
• Reduced compilation time.
• Reduced transfer time from a personal computer to the
PMC.
• The mode requires little ROM space.
On the other hand, the following restrictions must be observed:
• When data is edited by an integrated edit function, and if a
ladder or symbol is added, overlapping with the C language
area might occur. Pay careful attention to this point.
2 Net comment pointer
The net comment contains string information only in a source
program. The compiled object code does not include the net
comment information. Therefore, the setting to output the "net
comment pointer" (position information of a net comment) as a
function NOP to object code was developed. This position
information enables the net comment to be restored at
decompilation after a ladder is modified by online editing.
3 Symbol comment data
A relay comment, which is a type of symbol comment data, is
not included in a compiled object code. For details, see Section
3.5.1, " Symbol and Comment Data."
4 PMC-SB7
On PMC-SB7, the "Condense" and "Ignore too long strings of
the symbol" options are enabled unconditionally.
