Introduction
On some systems the "IO Table and Unit Setup" option is missing in CX-Programmer for CJ2M PLCs as show below:

This can be caused by installing standalone non-programming software (like CX-Supervisor, CX-Server Lite or CX-Server OPC) after CX-One, and accidentally reinstalling CX-Server in the process.
Solution
The quickest way to resolve this problem is simply to re-install CX-Server from CX-One although in practice the method to do this can vary from machine to machine.
Method 1
- Open Control Panel and select "Programs and Features" (or "Add/Remove Programs" on older operating systems)
- Look for the entry for "Common Components/CPS Updates". Select it and "Uninstall" it
- If there is more than one entry, then you only need to select the one with the latest date. Note the format 1101_0401 means 2011, month 01 (i.e. January), for version 4.01
- If no updates are shown for "Common Components/CPS Updates" move to Method 2
- After uninstallation, reboot if prompted
- Reinstall the autoupdate by either running the "CX-One Autoupdate Tool" or launching from disk if you Downloaded previously
- The IO Table should now be restored
Method 2
- Open Control Panel and select "Programs and Features" (or "Add/Remove Programs" on older operating systems)
- Look for the entry for "CX-Server". Select it and "Uninstall" it
- After uninstallation, reboot if prompted
- Reinstall CX-Server from you CX-One disk by launching
SETUP.EXE
in theCX-Server
folder - The IO Table should now be restored
Method 3
- Open Control Panel and select "Programs and Features" (or "Add/Remove Programs" on older operating systems)
- Look for the entry for "CX-One". Select it and "Uninstall" it
- After uninstallation, reboot if prompted
- From the CX-One media, launch the
CX-Remover
tool in theUtilities
folder - Reinstall CX-One from your disk
- Run the Autoupdate tool to download and install any available updates
- The IO Table should now be restored
