With PG5 it is possible to define First Time Inizializers to symbols using the syntax :=. This allows the initialization of symbol contents on download of the application program.
It is possible to use the analog modem TD-33 on the PCD, in order to send SMS and connect to the PCD (DTMF fonction are not supported by this modem).
There is a error in the assembler when symbol address used for example a symbol name as address for example: PI_volet_chauf R 1117 [17] Param2_PID_volet_chauf R PI_volet_chauf+1

The production of PCD2.M120 systems has been discontinued by the end of 2009. As possible replacement a PCD2.M150 or a PCD2.M5xx0 can be used.
The PCD CPUs can be protected with a password. Once the CPU is password protected it is not possible reading its hardware or user program any more.
In May 2010 the firmware 1.10.51 has been introduced into production for the PCD2.M5xx0 and the PCD3.Mxxx0. This FAQ lists the main differences between these versions.
A MPI-communication can be done over a serial RS 232 port of each PCD2.Mxx7
The PCD3.Mxxx7 do use the TCP/IP port 102 in relation with the TCP/IP communication from/to Step7
The serial communication on Port 0 works only when the PCD3 (or PCD2.M5547) is switched off, Run/Stop switch is set to Stop.
