RemTest Mode

The REMote Test mode is the same as RemRun, except that outputs are not energized.

You can perform the following ladder program tests.

Single Step Test

This test mode applies to SLC 5/02 and higher processors. Use this test to verify proper

ladder operation and for troubleshooting purposes. Single Step Test initiates the

processor to scan and execute a single rung or group of rungs. See

Chapter 18 - Online

Editing and Monitoring

for information on running a single step test. On a SLC 5/02

processor, Single Step Test must be enabled when saving the file (see

Chapter 6 -

Creating and Editing Ladder Logic

).

Single Scan Test

In this test mode, the processor executes a single operating cycle which includes

reading the inputs, executing the ladder program, and updating all data without

energizing output circuits.

Continuous Scan Test

This test mode is the same as the REMRun mode, except output circuits are not

energized. This allows you to troubleshoot or test your ladder program without

energizing external output devices.
