Running a Program
Chapter 7
7-5
Before selecting a part program, you must tell the control where this part
program is currently residing. You have 3 options:
the program can reside in the control’s memory
the program can reside on a peripheral device attached to port A such as
a tape reader (see your system installer’s documentation)
the program can reside on a peripheral device attached to port B such as
a tape reader (see your system installer’s documentation)
Important: If selecting a peripheral device attached to one of the two
communication ports (A or B), that port must have previously been
configured to communicate to that specific peripheral device. See chapter
9 for details on communications setup for ports A and B. Selecting a
program from the control’s memory is the default configuration of the
control. If port A or B is never selected, the input device should remain at
its default of control memory and the following procedure should be
unnecessary.
To select the part program input device:
1. Press the {PRGRAM MANAGE} softkey.
