The following sample project guides you through the creation of a simple application for a
Micro850 controller without any plug-in modules, and how to use the Run Mode Change
feature.
Create the Project
1. Create a new project for a Micro830/Micro85/Micro8700 controller without any plug-ins.
Observe that the controller is disconnected.
2. Right-click Programs and select Add
