5.4.2 Transition of states
(1) Starting the task
The main task (task 1) will start when start is input from the system, or when started with
the Teach Pendant.
The task stopped from the execution state will enter the ready state with the task start
command (TSTR).
(2) Ending the task
When the task being executed executes the END command, that task will end. The step
No., for the ended task will change to 1, and the task will stop. If the END command is
executed with the main task, all tasks will end when the commands for all tasks are
completed.
If the task being executed executes the TCAN command, the task will end when the task
command designated with that command is completed. The main task cannot be ended
with the TCAN command.
(3) Restarting the task
The main task will enter the execution state from the stopped step, and the other task will
enter the ready state.
