7.8 Setting the startup behavior
The startup mode defines how the control relay will respond when the operating
voltage is applied.
EASY-E4-...-12...CX1
Devices without a display can only be started in RUN mode.
After power up, the easyE4 device switches directly to RUN mode if it contains a valid
program (circuit diagram). If, on the other hand, there is no circuit diagram in the device,
it will remain in STOP mode.
If the device is connected via Ethernet, it can be configured.
EASY-E4-...-12...C1
The startup behavior of devices with a display can be set.
The selected startup mode is passed on with the program.
Startup behavior
The startup behavior is an important aid during the commissioning phase.
The circuit diagram which EASY-E4-...-12...C1 contains is not yet fully wired up or the
system or machine is in a state which EASY-E4-... is not permitted to control.
If voltage is applied to the easyE4 device in this case, it should not be possible to drive
the outputs, i.e., it is not allowed for the outputs to be set immediately when the easyE4
is switched on.
7.8.1 Enabling / disabling the RUN START option
