Change Mode Switch Position
Mode Switch position can be changed at two different times using LCD 
keypad. One is when the controller is powered up, and the other is while the 
controller is powered on. 
Mode Switch position can be set to either PROG or RUN when the controller is 
powered up. This allows the controller operation which is different from the 
previous mode, that is, any program under RUN before can be stopped or any 
new program can be run when the controller is powered up.
To forcibly set Mode Switch to RUN when the controller is powered up:
1. Press OK for 5 seconds when the controller is powered up. The following 
LCD screen appears if successfully done.
