**************************************************************** GP-PRO/PBIII C-Package03 SP2 **************************************************************** SEPTEMBER 30, 2005 Digital Electronics Corporation of Japan Foreword Thank you for purchasing the GP-PRO/PBIII C-Package03 software. GP-PRO/PBIII C-Package03 SP2 is a combined software package of both GP-PRO/PBIII Ver. 7.22 for Windows and Pro-Control Editor Ver. 5.10. The GP-PRO/PBIII Ver. 7.22 for Windows software (hereafter [PRO/PBIII Ver.7.22]) is designed to create screen data for Pro-face GP70, GP77R, GP2000, ST, LT, GLC100, GLC300, and GLC2000 Series programmable operator interfaces. The Pro-Control Editor Ver. 5.10 software (hereafter [Pro-Control Ver.5.10]) is designed to create ladder logic program exclusively for LT, GLC100, GLC300, and GLC2000 Series programmable operator interfaces. Designed from the ground up for Windows OS, the GP-PRO/PBIII C-Package03 SP2 software provides easy-to-use, high-performance functionality. =========================================================== Table of contents =========================================================== 0.
