Control operating state
A CPU can be switched to the designated operating state with the RUN and STOP switches.
The switching options are dependent on the position of the mode selector switch on the
SIMOTION device. The setting on the device takes priority.

Note
As of V4.4, manual switching to the STOP U operating state is no longer possible in the SCOUT
Control operating state dialog.
If a CPU is in offline mode, both the RUN and STOP buttons are deactivated.
Simultaneous control of several CPUs
CPUs that are in online mode and that are selected in the filter column can be switched
simultaneously to the RUN or STOP operating state. To do so, click the RUN or STOP switch
below the list.
Observe that the switches only switch the CPUs that are visible in the dialog. For this reason,
check the effect of the name filter in the Target device column.
