Chapter 8. PROGRAM SETUP
8  -  3 General Reset
A general reset can be performed when the controller is in the READY AUTO mode in the normal display mode. If
not in the normal display mode, press the DISP key to invoke it. A general reset has the following functions.
Program settings such as program numbers 1 to 99 are all deleted. Parameters are reset to their factory defaults and
the READY AUTO program run mode is invoked.
■ General reset procedures
(1) Invoke the READY AUTO mode. Or set variable parameters PA01 and PA02
to 0.
(2) Press the FUNC, CLR and MESSAGE keys and you are prompted to
confirm a general reset. “g.rESt ” is displayed in display panel 1.
(3) Press the ENTER key to execute the general reset and start startup operations
that occur after a power up.
Press the DISP key cancels the general reset and returns the normal display
mode.
● Display
In the constant value control mode, program number, segment number and profile
display go off.
• When the RAM backup fails at startup, the controller automatically prompts
you to confirm a general reset – no key input is required - and “g.rESt ” flashes
in display panel 1.
Press the ENTER key to execute the general reset. All other keys are invalid.
•A general reset does not return the following settings to factory default values.
C01, C02, C11, C12, C21: these values are stored.
Note, however, that a general reset
resulting from a RAM failure at startup
resets also these settings to factory default
values.
