Part 1 Installation
3.1 Starting a Program by Auto-Start via Parameter Setting
Other parameter No. 7 (Auto program start setting) = 1 (Standard factory setting)
Set the number of the program you wish to start automatically
in other parameter No. 1 (auto-start program number).
Set the controller mode to AUTO.
Reconnect the power or execute a software reset, and the
controller will be reset.
Once the controller is reset in the above step, the program of
the set number will start automatically.

Caution
[Note on starting a program by auto-start]
The automatic operation will begin immediately after the controller is reset, so the user may be surprised by
unexpected movements of the equipment, particularly those caused by a sudden activation of the servo actuator.
To ensure safety, always provide an interlocking function, such as allowing the program execution to proceed
only after receiving a confirmation signal at the beginning of the program.
If you wish to start multiple programs at the same time, write multiple “EXPG” commands at the beginning of the
main program to start the remaining programs. Provide safety measures for each program to be started.
* If the following setting is performed, the program of the selected program number will start automatically at
the ON edge of the signal received by the selected input port. The program will be aborted at the OFF edge.
You can set a desired input port for receiving the auto program start signal (dedicated function).
Set the input function setting value “5” in the I/O parameter corresponding to the desired input port number
(Nos. 30 through 45, 251 through 258).
(Refer to “I/O Function Lists” and “I/O Parameters.”)
