Mode change
General
A changeover to another operating mode is requested and activated via the interface.
Note
The mode is not changed internally until the IS "Channel status active" (V3300 0003.5) is no
longer present.
In the "Channel status Reset" (IS: V3300 0003.7, e.g. after pressing the "Reset key") one
can switch from any operating mode into another.
In the "Channel status interrupted" (IS: V3300 0003.6) only a conditional changeover is
possible (see following table).
If one leaves AUTO to change to JOG, one must return to AUTO again or press "Reset".
Thus a change AUTO-JOG-MDA is made impossible. The same applies for MDA from which
one may change neither directly nor indirectly to AUTO, provided the Reset state is present.
The table shows the possible operating mode changes depending on the current operating
mode and the channel state ("Channel in reset" or "Channel interrupted").

Possible mode changes are shown by an "X".
Error on operating mode changeover
A corresponding error message is output if a mode change request is rejected by the
system. This error message can be cleared without changing the channel status.
Mode change disable
Changeover between operating modes can be inhibited by means of IS "Mode group
changeover disable" (V3000 000.4). This suppresses the mode change request.
