Online Editing
17–5
Types of Online Editing
The type of online editing is dependent on the SLC 5/03 or SLC 5/04 processor’s
keyswitch position and the processor’s mode. There are two types of online editing:
•
Program Online Editing — when the processor is in either PROG mode or REM
Program mode
•
Runtime Online Editing — when the processor is in either REM Test or REM
Run mode
The following table summarizes the SLC 5/03 and SLC 5/04 processor keyswitch
positions and modes that enable online editing.

PROGram Program Program Online Editing
REMote REMote Program Program Online Editing

REMote REMote Run Runtime Online Editing
Note Online editing is not available when the keyswitch is in the RUN position. If you
attempt to perform an online edit with the keyswitch in the RUN position, the
message:
ONLINE EDITING NOT AVAILABLE, INVALID KEYSWITCH
POSITION is displayed.
Use the online editing function while in the RUN mode to make minor changes
to the ladder program. We recommend developing your program offline since
ladder rung logic changes take effect immediately after testing your edits.
Improper machine operation may occur, causing personnel injury or
equipment damage.
