3-2-2 Mode Setting
The Handheld Programming Console can be operated in three modes; the
functions and applications of these modes are outlined in the following table.
Use the Mode selector switch on the Handheld Programming Console to
select the mode.
Note that these modes apply only to the ID Sensor Unit; they do not apply to
the CPU.

Mode Function Application
RUN In this mode, the CPU transfers data to and from the Data
Carrier according to the program in the CPU. It is a normal
operating mode only; no key input is possible. Set the ID Sensor to RUN mode for normal
operation.
MONITOR In this mode, use Read,
Write, Continuous Write,
and Step Write to monitor
data communication
between the ID Sensor
and the Data Carrier. In
this mode, the ID Sensor
Unit operates only via
commands input from the
Handheld Programming
Comsole; commands
from the CPU are
ignored. The ID Sensor Unit reads/
writes data directly from/to the
Data Carrier. An easy operation test such as Read, Step
Write or Continuous Write can be performed
when installing the ID Sensor.
The ID Sensor Unit repeatedly
executes Read, Write, Auto
Read, or Auto Write. If an
error occurs, the correspond-
ing error code is displayed on
the Programming Console.
(Refer to
3-2-10 Error Codes .)
Use this mode to test (TEST) and adjust the
speed of the Data Carrier and the distance
from the Read/Write Head (or Antenna).
Any communication error that
has occurred in RUN mode is
displayed on the Program-
ming Console. If an error occurs, use MONITOR mode to
determine the cause. (Refer to
3-2-9 Error
Log Display (ERR) .)
PROGRAM Not used. –––
