Parameter

Description

Powerup Mode

The action you want an online drive (a drive in the On-Line
Drives branch of the Workspace window) to take with respect to
the selected project's child executable program (.exe) file:
Run, to automatically run the program when power is first

applied to the online drive, or

Idle, to not run the program on powerup. Idle is the default

setting.

(Note: The executable program file inherits this parameter
setting from its parent Project when you execute the Build
command. You may independently edit this value.)

Command

Description

Run

This command tells an online drive to start or resume execution
of the selected executable program (.exe) file. While the
program is running, the Workspace window icon for the
selected program is animated.

Stop

This command tells an online drive to stop executing a selected
executable program (.exe) file. This command provides a
controlled stop to program execution (unlike the Kill command).
When the Stop command executes, animation for the selected
program's icon stops.

Kill

This command tells an online drive to immediately stop
executing the selected executable program (.exe) file. Unlike the
Stop command, this command does not provide a controlled
stop to program execution.
When the Kill command executes, animation for the selected
program's icon stops.
