8-5-6 Switching the program from I/O

The SRCP series controller does not accept dedicated command inputs for program switching. To
switch the program through the I/O, use the program selection signal as a conditional jump input as
explained below.
The following method is an example for switching among 16 kinds of programs.

Parameter
Since the number of programs to be selected is 16, set
the PRM8 (No. of conditional input points) to 4.

CAUTION

In actual programming, PRM8 must be set to
match the number of programs you use. (See
the table at the right.)

<>
When using the JMPF statement to select a program, select the general-purpose input/output points
(DI7 and DO0 in this case) one at a time and perform the handshake. This is for synchronizing the
SRCP controller program with an external device such as a PLC. If this part is omitted, the wrong
program might be selected during program selection with the JMPF statement.
In specific operations, an external device should turn on DI7 after confirming DI3 to DI0. The SRCP
controller then turns on DO0 just after detecting that DI7 is on, and informs the external device that
the program is being selected. When the external device detects that DO0 is on, DI7 should turn off.
(DI3 to DI0 should be retained.) Then, when DO0 turns off, this means that the program selection is
complete, so it is okay to change DI3 to DI0. The program selection is now complete and actual
program operations are executed.
When each selected program has been executed, the operation returns to the top of the program (L0
in the program NO0). The operation returns to the top of the program when there is no program
matching the program selection input.
