2. Enter the password you want to activate by typing it in on the input
line with the keys on the operator panel. The control displays * for
the characters you entered. If you make an error entering the
password, edit the input line as described on page 2-37.
3. When the password is correct, press the
[TRANSMIT]
key. The access
level that the password is assigned to is made active, and the control
enables all of the functions that are assigned to that access level.
The control provides 3 basic operation modes:
manual (MAN or MANUAL)
manual data input (MDI)
automatic (AUTO)
You can select a mode by using on the MTB panel, or
using the
{FRONT PANEL}
softkey. This is configurable by your system
installer. Both means of selection cannot be available. Details on using
the
{FRONT PANEL}
softkey are given on page 2-13.
Depending on the current control status, a mode change request cannot be
honored. Operating modes may not be changed if any of these are true:
The control is in E-Stop.
The control is in the cycle-suspend state. This results when a program
is halted during the execution of a block.
