7.9 Setting the startup behavior
The startup mode defines how the easyE4 device will respond when the supply
voltage is applied.
EASY-E4-...-12...CX1(P)
Devices without a display automatically start in RUN mode.
After power up, the easyE4 device switches directly to RUN mode if it contains a
valid program.
If, on the other hand, there is no program in the easyE4 device, it will remain in STOP
mode.
If the device is connected via Ethernet, it can be configured.
A *.e80 program can be loaded via a memory card.
EASY-E4-...-12...C1(P)
The startup behavior of devices with a display can be set.
With the SYSTEM OPTIONS/SYSTEM/RUN START menu option on the device or in
the program in easySoft 8 by using the RUN start option.
This option will be stored on the device together with the program.

Startup behavior
The startup behavior is an important aid during the commissioning phase.
The circuit diagram which EASY-E4-...-12...C1(P) contains is not yet fully wired up or
the system or machine is in a state which EASY-E4-... is not permitted to control.
If voltage is applied to the easyE4 device in this case, it should not be possible to
drive the outputs, i.e., it is not allowed for the outputs to be set immediately when the
easyE4 is switched on.
