Abstract: A sequence program editing apparatus that automatically performs editing of function block instances in a sequence program when a definition of a function block is modified. When a function block definition defining the number of parameters or attributes of parameters is modified, the sequence program is searched to find a function block instance using the function block of which definition is modified. The found function block instance is altered so that the number of parameters or attributes of parameters conform with the modified definition of the function block.

Abstract: A non-aqueous electrolyte secondary battery including a positive electrode capable of absorbing and desorbing lithium, a negative electrode capable of absorbing and desorbing lithium, a separator, and a non-aqueous electrolyte, wherein the positive electrode includes a positive electrode active material having a redox potential of not less than 4.5 V relative to a lithium electrode, a coating film is formed on a surface of the positive electrode, and the coating film includes inorganic fine particles and a polymer having a methyl methacrylate unit.

Abstract: A sequence program editing apparatus includes a program storing unit for storing an application program including a sequence program, an information storing unit for storing symbol/comment information used in the sequence program, a selecting unit for selecting a part or a whole of a sequence program displayed on an application screen run by the first application program, an extracting unit for extracting the symbol/comment information included in the selected sequence program from the information storing unit, and a copy unit for copying the selected sequence program on the application screen run by the second application program and copying the extracted symbol/comment information on the information storing unit of the second application.

Abstract: A sequence program editing apparatus capable of easily replacing duplicated signal names. The apparatus detects duplicated signal names used in a sequence program and displays locations used with the signal names in the form of a list. Names to be rewritten are selected from among the duplicates and checked. New signal names are directly entered, and a signal name rewriting execution command is inputted. Alternatively, a search range and a sort of assignable signal name are designated by setting start and end addresses. When an execution command is inputted, signal names of designated sort are automatically extracted and entered as new names. The subsequent input of a signal name rewriting execution command automatically replaces the duplicated signal names in the designated locations with signal names newly entered. It is possible to easily replace duplication of the same signal names. If a range of renaming contacts associated with the coils is set, the contacts are renamed.
