A36 00 Operation Command 
Flag
ON: Operation 
command exe-
cuted.
OFF: Stop com-
mand executed. 
Turned ON at following times:
• When inverter positioning is started
Turned OFF at following times:
• When power to CPU Unit is turned ON
• At start of operation
• When CPU Unit operation stops 
• When inverter positioning is stopped 
using INI instruction
This flag is used as 
a NO input condi-
tion when calculat-
ing the frequency 
command value in 
the user program. It 
is also used as a 
NC input condition 
when clearing the 
frequency com-
mand value to zero. 
01 Forward Operation 
Command Flag
ON: Forward com-
mand in progress
OFF: Reverse 
command in 
progress or 
stopped
Turned ON at following times:
• When error counter present value is 
greater than 0 (i.e., positive)
Turned OFF at following times:
• When error counter present value is 
less than 0 (i.e., negative) or zero
• When power to CPU Unit is turned ON
• When CPU Unit operation starts
• When CPU Unit operation stops
This flag is used as 
a NO input condi-
tion when output-
ting a forward 
operation com-
mand to the 
inverter from the 
user program 
It is also used as a 
NC input condition 
when outputting a 
reverse command 
to the inverter.
02 Reverse Operation 
Command Flag
ON: Reverse com-
mand in progress
OFF: Forward 
command in 
progress or 
stopped
Turned ON at following times:
• When error counter present value is 
less than 0 (i.e., negative)
Turned OFF at following times:
• When error counter present value is 
greater than 0 (i.e., positive) or zero
• When power to CPU Unit is turned ON
• When CPU Unit operation starts
• When CPU Unit operation stops
This flag is used as 
a NO input condi-
tion when output-
ting a reverse 
operation com-
mand to the 
inverter from the 
user program 
It is also used as a 
NC input condition 
when outputting a 
forward command 
to the inverter.
