RUNNING TASKS

CHANGE STATE, RESULTING IN MACHINE MOVEMENT. FAILURE TO OBSERVE

THESE PRECAUTIONS COULD RESULT IN BODILY INJURY.

WARNING

IT IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE USER TO ENSURE SAFE OPERATION OF THE

APPLICATION PROCESS SHOULD THE APPLICATION TASKS BE STARTED OUT

OF SEQUENCE. FAILURE TO OBSERVE THESE PRECAUTIONS COULD RESULT

IN BODILY INJURY.

THE USER MUST PROVIDE AN EXTERNAL, HARDWIRED EMERGENCY STOP

CIRCUIT OUTSIDE THE CONTROLLER CIRCUITRY. THIS CIRCUIT MUST

MACHINE OPERATION MAY RESULT IF THIS PROCEDURE IS NOT FOLLOWED.

Note that a task may need to perform initialization before entering the

main loop or the scanned portion of the task. When the task is

started, this initialization will preĆempt any task which may be running

at a lower priority. Depending on the application, this may result in a

STOPĆALL error.
The RUN option from the ON LINE menu is used to put AutoMax and

UDC tasks loaded onto the rack into run. You can put tasks into run

individually, or you can put all tasks in the rack into run. Utility tasks

will also be put into run by running all tasks as described in 15.2. The

keyswitch must be in the PROGRAM position and the password must

be entered to run any task. You must also obtain either rack access

or task access for all the tasks you want to run.
Your first step in running tasks depends on whether you want to run

one task only or all the tasks in the rack. Follow the directions in 15.1

for running one task only. Follow the directions in 15.2 for running all

tasks specified in the configuration for the rack.
