PACKE(V) Operating Manual (Drawing Software Manual).
1.2 Precautions before use
Precautions before using each function are described as follows:
(1) There are unavailable functions depending on the GOT.
Please note that some functions require extension memory in the GOT unit.
Memory is extended according to the following procedures.

(1) Ladder monitoring is not available for sub-programs 2 and 3 of the A4UCPU
(when connected to the computer link).
(2) When the monitoring destination is QnACPU, Q4ARCPU, or Q2ASCPU, the
CPU that can perform setup value changes to the timer/counter of the
system monitor function and perform device comment displays, is that the
CPU which ahs "9707 B" and later in the date column of the rated plate.
When changing the timer/counter setup value
