This is the last phase of testing needed to help ensure proper start-up.
ATTENTION: Only trained personnel should conduct this test.
Have a trained person at appropriate emergency stop switches
to de-energize output devices that could cause
hazardous operation.
To test your program do the following:
1.
Connect the industrial terminal to your processor
2.
Press [Search] [5] [9] [2] to select the Remote Program mode.
3.
Enter your program.
4.
Press [Search] [5] [9] [1] to select the Remote Test mode.
5.
Examine your entered program. Make sure that no output device
energizes unconditionally.
6.
Connect an output module to a single device that causes
machine motion.
7.
Check the behavior of the connected output device. To do this,
simulate the input conditions necessary to energize the output in the
program while the processor is in the run/program mode of operation.
Press [Search] [5] [9] [0].
8.
Disconnect the output device.
9.
Restore the connection from an output module to the next single
output device to be tested.
10.
Repeat steps 7-9 until you test all outputs.
11.
Restore the connection from output modules to all devices causing
machine motion. Restore power to any machine that you
disconnected for start-up.
12.
Perform a first run of your processor program with all output
devices enabled.
