Lesson 5 7-13

To start program execution, open the Program dialog in the Toolbox and click
the RUN button. As Remote RUN was set on all devices, this command is
applied to all three devices, i.e. all devices in the Pico-Link are switched from
STOP to RUN.

As mentioned in previous lessons, we can display the states in the devices in
PicoSoft Pro via Communication, Status Display On.

As we have selected Device 1 via Communication, Device, Pico-Link
Operation

When pressing the P1 cursor button of the second device, you will see very
clearly that the information is passed on successfully to the master, where the
counter function block is incremented.
