Safety operation mode state transition
The Safety CPU retains the safety operation mode even in the event of a power failure, and therefore the current safety
operation mode state will remain unchanged even if the CPU module is powered off and on or is reset. Safety function
modules do not retain the safety operation mode in the event of a power failure, and the safety operation mode will be the
same as that of the Safety CPU when the CPU module is powered off and on or is reset.
If [Online] [User Authentication] [Initialization of all PLC Data] is performed, the safety operation mode
will revert to the default mode (TEST MODE). All programmable controller information can be initialized
regardless of the safety operation mode.
