(2) Limitations 2-1 Editor - #H_ScanOffControl does not appear in the Address and Cross Reference windows. - If you use the version reverter on a project set up with a sampling group associated with consecutive addresses and sampling words of 2 or more, the project may not be converted or the sampling settings may be deleted. - Sometimes dragging parts from one screen editor and dropping to another does not produce a copy. - When memory usage on the computer is high, and the project data exceeds the maximum size, the project information may show the project transmission size as 0 bytes (0.0%). - If you draw an XY Historical Trend Graph or XY Data Block Graph on base screen 9000 or higher, the graph display area will not appear on the display unit nor in simulation. - Comparison result of [Device/PLC settings] may appear as "Different" though project files have same [Device/PLC] Settings. - While copying from another project that is very large, sometimes the screen editor will close unexpectedly. When that happens, split screens into 2 and perform copy operations separately. - When setting the [GP-Viewer EX Function key code], match the Runtime version (and System version) on the display unit and screen editing software. - Depending on the environment, sometimes transferring via modem may not work. - Transferring via COM or modem will fail sometimes. If that occurs, try again.
- When specifying addresses with large address numbers, in some cases only addresses smaller than the maximum input address are allowed to be specified. - The screen editor does not support the Windows 10 feature [Beta: Use Unicode UTF-8 for worldwide language support]. 2-2 Display Unit (Runtime) - When a USB device is inserted/removed, all USB devices may not become disabled under the condition that five or more USB devices are connected at the same time using the USB HUB in GP-4000 series. If this phenomenon occurs, reset the Display. - When two or more Data Displays with "Indirect" specified are made to be invisible at the same time while displaying a pop-up keypad, some Data Display may not be invisible. - A keypad is closed while the [Alt] key on the keypad of the RPA Window Display is held down. When the keypad is opened next time, the [Alt] key remains held down. - Do not use a logic program during communication with a Device/PLC using a USB/SIO (RS422/485). If the logic program is used in the situation, a communication error may occur. - Display of instructions in the logic monitor and online monitor are sometimes different. - In GP4000 series (except for GP-4100 series) and LT4000 series, the buzzer sound in Ver. 3.5 is different from that in Ver. lower than 3.5. - While logic is stopped on the GP-4G01, if you press and hold down both the [USB1] and [SD] removal switches at the same time, the [PWR] LED lights start flashing irregularly. - Do not attach/detach the fingerprint authentication unit while turning on the power to the Display. Doing so, inconsistency occurs between the security data and the fingerprint data and the display of the authentication and the password setting may not operate normally. If an inconsistency occurs between them due to attachment/detachment of the fingerprint authentication unit, update the fingerprint data of the fingerprint authentication unit using the "Update DB" function. - Do not attach/detach the transfer cable while transferring to the SP5000 Series Open Box (SP-5B40). Even if the cable is detached, the unit will not detect an error. - On the Power Box(SP-5B10) of the SP5000 series, In the case of forced transfer mode, you cannot transfer using LAN2. - If the project is large and many functions are set up, the display unit may restart repeatedly after transfer. - On the GP-4000 series (except GP4000M and GP41** series) and GP-4G01, project transfer may fail for large projects. If that happens, transfer the project again. - Compared to other series, the buzzer for the Open Box's (SP-5B40) Bit Momentary switch sounds different. - The Windows task bar flickers if you continually trigger the system menu's display operation (simultaneously touch the top-right and bottom-left corners) on the SP5000 series Open Box (SP-5B40). - On models that support 2-point touch, while the first touch is initiated and you work with the system menu, system menu operations may not work. Display the system menu again and menu operations become available. - On the SP5000 series Open Box (SP-5B40), even though there are no devices connected, in the offline menu, the Peripheral Settings screen's USB Screen shows USB equipment. - On the GP4200 Series, GP4300 Series, and LT4000 Series, you cannot edit Web Server settings offline. - With the SP5000 Series Power Box (SP-5B10) and WinGP, do not touch the top-right or top-left corners while starting up. While normally this would take you to offline mode, there are certain circumstances when this will not work. - On the GP-4100 Series (Color Model), if you download the different CML file in a row without ending the memory loader, SRAM may be initialized after restarting the display unit. - When the [Compress] check box is selected, transparency may not display properly. - Search results may not display if you use system variables to search for a recipe, while deleting a recipe in an Enhanced Recipe List part. When this occurs, reset the display unit. - When there are a large number of recipes, importing recipes may take considerably longer than it did in Ver.4.6.10. - On the display unit, you can add enhanced recipe data to a project even if it exceeds 100% of its maximum transfer size. On the editor, if you use the Receive Project command to get the project from the display unit, you may not be able to transfer the project back to the display unit due to a transfer size error. - If you set up a variable with less than 32 words as the label's destination address, the enhanced recipe may not work properly. - If you use a Word Add or Word Subtract switch on a device address that is used to define the screen number in a change screen switch, the expected screen may not display if you change screens quickly. To reliably change screens, use a Selector switch. - When [Display Unit] - [Operation] - [Output to External Buzzer Terminal] is enabled on the GP3300H or GP4000H series, the GP3000H conversion adapter emits the external buzzer for the following operations from the maintenance menu. - Check Pattern - Check Touch Panel - Calibrate Touch Panel - Check COM1/COM2/LAN - Memory Info - Check Function Switch - On the GP-4621T or GP-4521T, video module images of VM Unit and RGP Input Unit do not display on the Remote HMI client side. - When connecting to OpenBox, occasionally screen distribution may be delayed. - When the Pro-face Remote HMI is connected to HMI via the EZ LAN Adapter, you may not be able to reconnect automatically when unplugging then plugging back in the EZ LAN Adapter. Please return to the server list and reconnect. - Do not operate the SD/USB switches from a client. You can perform Memory Loader operations only from the display unit itself, and therefore are unavailable from the client. - Occasionally the File Manager does not sort its operation log's output files in file creation order. - While all items are selected in the File Manager with the [All] button, and the FTP server connection is released, the [All] button becomes highlighted. If this occurs, close the File Manager and open again. - While the "Confirm Delete" message box displays as a result of touching the [DEL] button in the File Manager, if you attach or detach USB memory the File Manager does not display the files in USB storage. If this occurs, close the File Manager and open again. - When the File Manager is connected to the FTP server and a file is not selected, sometimes the file date, time, and size may display incorrectly. If this happens, select a file in the File Manager. - Selecting either [Cancel] or [No] in a File Manager connected to the FTP server sometimes causes the date, time, and size of the wrong file to display. If this happens, select another file in the File Manager. - When the File Manager is connected to the FTP server and a copy file operation fails, the incorrect file name may appear in the confirmation message box. - In the destination, if you specify an FTP server with PASV disabled, file write may fail and a 0-byte sized file may be created in the destination folder. - When using GP4000M or LT4000M Series, restarting the display unit will erase the Japanese FEP information. - When connecting multiple SiteManager Extend and LinkManager to an Open Box set up with SiteManager, Pro-Server EX may not operate properly on some of the LinkManager. - Sending or receiving large projects via LinkManager fails sometimes. - If LinkManager is already installed and you install LinkManager again, sometimes the existing shortcut is not deleted and results in duplicate shortcuts. - If you forcibly transfer via Link Manager a project to a display unit set up as the agent of Site Manager Extend, the transfer operation sometimes fails. - With SiteManager Embedded, the Transfer Tool, GP-Viewer EX and Pro-Server may not be able to automatically detect display units. - With SiteManager Embedded, you can use only ASCII text for the Proxy Password. - Brightness On the GP-4100 Series color model, while power is supplied from the USB (mini-B) interface and power is also supplied by the DC power supply, the screen brightness will not match the defined value. Remove the cable from the USB (mini-B) interface before turning on the power.
