7.Transferring the Programs

8.Testing Operation

8-a) I/O Wiring Checks

8-b) Trial Operation

8-c) Monitoring and Debugging

When the programs has been created in the CX-Programmer, they must be transferred to the Motion Control Modules through the Coordinator Module.

Check Output Wiring

With the FQM1 in PROGRAM mode, force-set and force-reset output bits from the CX-Programmer and verify that the corresponding outputs operate properly.

Check Input Wiring

Activate input devices, such as sensors and switches, and verify that the cor- responding input indicators light. Also, use the Bit/Word Monitor operation from the CX-Programmer to verify the operation of the corresponding input bits.

Use the CX-Programmer to switch each Module to MONITOR mode.

Using the CX-Programmer

Coordinator Module	Trial Operation

FQM1

There are several ways to monitor and debug FQM1 operation, including the force-set and force-reset operations, differentiation monitoring, time chart monitoring, data tracing, and online editing.

Force-Set and Force-Reset

When necessary, the force-set and force-reset operations can be used to force the status of bits and check program execution.

From the CX-Programmer, select the bit to be force-set or force-reset and then select Force On or Off from the PLC menu.

Differentiation Monitor

The differentiation monitor operation can be used to monitor the up or down differentiation of particular bits. Use the following procedure from the CX-Pro- grammer.
