Programming Console Operations Section 7-3
If the Programming Console is connected to the PC when PC power is
already ON, the first display below will indicate the mode the PC was in before
the Programming Console was connected. Ensure that the PC is in PRO-
GRAM mode before you enter the password. When the password is
entered, the PC will shift to the mode set on the mode switch, causing PC
operation to begin if the mode is set to RUN or MONITOR. The mode can be
changed to RUN or MONITOR with the mode switch after entering the pass-
word.
