How to use STEP 7-Micro / WIN software select the operating mode

PLC has stopped running and two modes. In different ways of working, PLC different methods of operation for debugging.

² ² toolbar, click the “Run” button
or the “Stop” button to enter the corresponding work.

1. Select the STOP operating mode

In the STOP (Stop) mode of operation, you can create and edit programs, PLC in a semi-idle state: Stop the user program execution; execute input refresh; user break condition is disabled. PLC operating system continues to monitor the PLC, the delivery status data to the STEP 7-Micro / WIN 32, and performs all the “mandatory” or “Cancel mandatory” command. When the PLC is located STOP (Stop) work can do the following:
 
1, showing a state or use the program to view the status of the current value of the operand. (Because the program is not implemented, this step is equivalent to the implementation of “Single Read”)

 
2, showing a state or program can use state force values. FIG written using state values.

 
3, write, or forced output.

 
4, perform limited scans, and by a state diagram or program status observations.


2. Select the run mode of operation


When the PLC is located RUN (running) work, you can not use the “first scan” or “multi-scanning” function. You can be written in the state diagram and force values, or use the LAD or FBD program editor force values, methods and forced in STOP (stop) works in the same values. You can also do the following (can not be used in the STOP operating mode):

1, the use of continuously updated view of the state to collect PLC data values. If you want to use a single update, showing a state it must be closed in order to use “Single Read” command.
 
2, the use of PLC program status collection continuously updated data values.

 
3, using the RUN operating mode “Program Edit editor, and to download the changes to the PLC.
