• The PAUSE contact (SM204) turns on during END processing of the scan where the remote
PAUSE command is executed.
The CPU module executes one more scan until the END instruction after the scan where the PAUSE
contact turns on, and then changes its operating status to PAUSE. In the PAUSE status, the program
operations are stopped.
• Upon execution of the remote RUN command, the CPU module will restart the sequence
program operations from the step 0.
(4) Precautions
