Downloading
To download a project to a SLC 500 processor:
1. From the Main Menu, select [F6] Up/Download Program to SLC-500 . The
system displays the Up/Download menu.
2. Select [F1] Download program to SLC-500 .
3. The system prompts you to confirm the .ACH file name that will be downloaded.
If you select [F1] Yes , the system begins downloading the project to the processor.
If you select [F5] No , the system aborts the downloading procedure.
When you attempt to download to a SLC 500, the system checks the operational
mode of the processor. If the processor is in the RemRun or RemTest mode, PLC-
500 A.I. asks if you want to change the processor to Program mode. If you press
[F1] Yes , the system changes the mode to Program and downloads the program.
(When the system finishes downloading the program, it will ask if you want to
switch the processor back to its previous mode.)
When the system starts the download procedure, the system displays a status box
showing the ladder and data table files being downloaded to the processor.
4. If the processor had been in the RemRun or RemTest mode before you began
downloading, the system asks if you want to switch the processor back to the
previous mode. If you press [F1] Yes , the system switches the processor to the
previous mode. If you press [F2] No , the system leaves the processor in the
Program mode.
