4-3-1 Operating Modes

PROGRAM

MONITOR

RUN

Coordinator and Motion Control Modules have three operating modes that control the user program.

Programs are not executed and preparations, such as initializing the System Setup and other settings, transferring programs, checking programs, force- setting, force-resetting, and checking wiring can be executed prior to program execution. Motion Control Module built-in I/O refreshing and Coordinator Mod- ule cyclic refreshing are, however, executed in this mode.

Programs are executed, but some operations, such as online editing and changing present values in I/O memory, are enabled for trial operation and other adjustments.

Programs are executed but some operations, such as online editing and changing the present values in I/O memory using CX-Programmer, cannot be performed. The CX-Programmer can monitor the program execution status (program and I/O memory monitoring). The main system operation is per- formed in RUN mode.

Note (1) The operating mode of Motion Control Modules cannot be changed inde- pendently in Sync Mode. Always change the operating mode of the Co- ordinator Module in Sync Mode.

(2)To debug Motion Control Module programs, change the Coordinator Mod- ule to ASync Mode under the System Setup and change the operating mode for that Motion Control Module.
