The CX-One FA Integrated Tool Package makes design,
development, and maintenance easy and efficient.
Improved Programming Efficiency with Single-key Operation
The CX-Programmer features the “Single-key Concept” to increase operability. Apart from inputs to
ladder diagrams, history searches, and model jumps, single-key operation can be used for
simulation debugging as well.
Multiple Languages Can Be Combined
To Make Programming Flexible
The multilingual feature supports IEC
61131-3. Programming is possible in a
language that is appropriate for the process
by combining ladder diagram and ST
languages. Function blocks can be created
to make programming even more efficient.

The allocation of shortcut keys can be checked in the
guidance for ladder input key operations. Key inputs,
such as the
Key for NO input conditions, the
Key for OUTPUT instruction, and the
Key for
special instructions are convenient when programming.
Just press the
Key and enter the bit number and
comment to complete the input condition. Special
instruction can be input as shown in the following figure.

CX-One Configuration
The CX-One is an FA Integrated
Tool Package for connecting,
setting, and programming OMRON
components, including PLCs. CS1
programming and settings can be
done with just the CX-Programmer,
but the CX-One provides Support
Software for setting and
programming PTs, Temperature
Controllers, and many other
components. Using the CX-One
makes programming and setup
easy, shortening the total lead time
required for starting up machines
and equipment.

Single-key Searches and Jumps
Search functions, such as Find Back (searching
for input conditions or outputs with the same
address) and Find Address can be executed with
a single key.
Single-key Simulation
Simulation and debugging of a PLC program can
also be executed with a single key. Applications
using both a PLC and Programmable Terminal can
be debugged using a computer without the actual
devices using PLC-PT Integrated Simulation.

Ladder diagrams, communications programs, and control screens can
be created simply by selecting and pasting program modules from the
extensive libraries. Using FB and SAP modules to build the programs,
it is possible to create programs that are easier to understand.

Debugging
Management of Multiple Networks
The operation of networks with configurations
consisting of multiple networks including PLC
networks such as EtherNet/IP and Controller
Link, field networks such as DeviceNet and
CompoNet, and networks for Programmable
Terminals and Serial Devices, can be restored
simultaneously from the CX-One. Onsite start
up and debugging can be conducted efficiently
and without errors because PLCs and devices
can be selected from the window to transfer
programs and parameter data to the computer
during operation.
Batch Backup
Ladder diagram Monitoring for
Multiple PLCs
Multiple PLCs can be monitored by
displaying them in series on the screen.
This way it is easy to debug data links
between PLCs and monitor the inputs and
outputs of different PLCs.

Batch Backup/Restore with a
Computer
A computer can be used to backup,
compare, or restore data for all or specific
PLC Units when connected online. Backup
information is automatically tagged with a
date stamp. It is thus possible to return to
the state before an error occurred. It is also
easy to identify the file
for restoring data when
an error occurs.

Easy Programming
Smart Input
A complete range of intuitive programming functions is provided, including instruction and address
input assistance, address incrementing, and address Incremental Copy.
These functions enable waste-free programming with minimal effort.
Instruction and Address Input Assistance
When you begin typing an instruction from the keyboard while in the Ladder Editor Window, suggested
instructions are displayed.
All you have to do is select the instruction from the list for easy input even if you do not remember the entire
mnemonic.

Time Require for Debugging and Maintenance Has Been Reduced with
the Comprehensive Data Trace Function
Automatic Insertion of Connecting Lines
When an output or application instruction is input, the required connecting line is inserted automatically
starting at the cursor location. This greatly simplifies the work required to insert lines.
Address Incremental Copy
To create the same group of ladder instructions more than once, the address incremental copy function can
be used to reuse the instructions simply by inputting an address offset. Also, address offsets can be set
individually and I/O comments can be created automatically.
F-8
Functionality and operability has been
significantly upgraded compared to the
previous data trace function. The new data
trace function provides comprehensive
debugging, such as I/O comment display of
sampled addresses, specification using
symbols, checking the measurement time
between two selected points, and layering
waveforms. Furthermore, data sampled
from the CPU Unit’s trace memory can be
saved to a file on the computer at a
specified frequency. This can be used as for
long-term logging of data.
