Once this instruction is executed, the program halts. To continue the program, the mode in the test
run (continuous run / step run) should be selected. In the step run mode, the program is executed
instruction by instruction regardless of the instructions and in the continuous run mode, the
program is executed until it is stopped by the next break instruction (BRK) or the end of the

The test run mode is executed, when the mode selector switch on the PLC is
set to RUN mode with setting the INITIALIZE/TEST switch to the TEST mode.
