Description of Tasks Section 1-6
Executable and Standby
Status The TASK ON and TASK OFF instructions (TKON(820) and TKOF(821)) can
be executed in one task to place another task in executable or standby status.
Instructions in tasks that are on standby will not be executed, but their I/O sta-
tus will be maintained. When a task is returned to executable status, instruc-
tions will be executed with the I/O status that was maintained.
Example: Programming with a Control Task
In this example, task 0 is a control task that is executed first at the start of
operation. Other tasks can be set from the CX-Programmer (but not a Pro-
gramming Console) to start or not to start at the beginning of operation.
Once program execution has been started, tasks can be controlled with
TKON(820) and TKOF(821).
