In the I/O Monitor, right-click the input or output you want to remove the force from, and
click Remove Force. Or, in the I/O Monitor, right-click anywhere and click Remove All
Forces.
Using Inputs to Start a User Program
To start a User Program based on an input:
• Open the Program Triggers Editor.
• Double-click the Condition cell in the bottom row to create a Program Trigger.
• In the New Condition Wizard, choose Other and click Next.
• In the Tags box, find the input you want under the Discrete I/O node and double-
click it.
• If you want a User Program to start when the input goes low, type NOT in front of the
input name in the Expression box. Otherwise, the User Program will start when the
input goes high.
• Click Finish.
• In the Tasks columns, choose the User Programs you want to start for each task, or
choose which tasks you want to stop.
• To apply the changes to the RMC, right-click the Programming node in the Project
pane, and click Download Programs.
