It is possible only in RUN or MONITOR mode while the program is being exe

cuted.

MONTR

There might be differences in displayed values when the MONTR Key is

pressed repeatedly. These differences are caused by changing execution

conditions.

3-3-15 Force Set, Reset

F150-C15E-3

This operation is used to force bits ON (force set) or OFF (force reset) and is

useful when debugging the program or checking output wiring. It is possible

in MONITOR or PROGRAM mode only.

RUN MONITOR PROGRAM

1. Monitor the status of the desired bit according to the procedure described in

3-3-12 Bit, Digit, Word Monitor. If two or more words are being monitored,

the desired bit should be leftmost on the display.

2. Press the SET Key to force the bit ON or press the RESET Key to turn the bit

The cursor in the lower left corner of the display indicates that the force set/

reset is in progress. Bit status will remain ON or OFF only as long as the key

is held down; the original status will return one cycle after the key is re

leased.

If a timer or counter is force reset in MONITOR mode, it will begin operation

again after completion if its input is on and will stop when the time is up.

Press the SHIFT+SET or SHIFT+RESET Keys to maintain the status of the

bit after the key is released. In this case, the force-set status is indicated by

an “S” and the force-reset status is indicated by an “R.”

To return the bit to its original status, press the NOT key or perform the Clear

Force Set/Reset operation. (Refer to 3-3-16 Clear Force Set/Reset for de

tails.) Forced status will also be cleared when the ID Controller’s operating

mode is changed (unless SR 25211 is ON, in which case forced status will

not be cleared when changing from PROGRAM to MONITOR mode) or

when operation stops as the result of an error or power interruption.​
