About this Manual:
This manual describes the installation and operation of the CXONE-AL@@C-V4/CXONE-AL@@D-V4
Face Plate Auto-Builder for NS. The Face Plate Auto-Builder for NS is a software package used to
automatically build project files for the CS1W-LC001 Loop Control Unit, the CS1W-LCB01 and CS1W-
LCB05 Loop Control Boards, CS1D-CPU@@P Process-control CPU Units, and CJ1W-CPU@@P Loop
Control CPU Units used with NS-series Programmable Terminals. These files are based on the tag
files created using CX-Process Tool.
The project files that are created are configured using the Face Plate Screens for the Loop Control
Unit.
Please read this manual carefully and be sure you understand the information provided before
attempting to install and operate the Face Plate Auto-Builder for NS. Please read the following manuals
carefully and be sure you understand the information provided before setting up the Loop Control Unit/
Board and NS-series PT System
