3.6 Remote Operation
The remote operation can change the operating status of the CPU module externally (using a programming tool,
external devices in the MC protocol, link dedicated instructions for a CC-Link IE module or a MELSECNET/H module,
or remote contacts). Four types of remote operations are available:
• Remote RUN/STOP ( Page 131, Section 3.6.1)
• Remote PAUSE ( Page 134, Section 3.6.2)
• Remote RESET ( Page 136, Section 3.6.3)
• Remote latch clear ( Page 137, Section 3.6.4)
3.6.1 Remote RUN/STOP
This operation changes the operating status of the CPU module externally to RUN or STOP, keeping the
RUN/STOP/RESET switch of the CPU module in the RUN position.
(1) Application
This operation is useful to run or stop the CPU module remotely when:
• the CPU module is inaccessible, or
• the CPU module is in a control panel.
(2) Program operation
The program operation will be as follows when the remote RUN/STOP operation is performed.
(a) Remote STOP
The CPU module executes a program until the END instruction and changes its operating status to STOP.
(b) Remote RUN
The CPU module changes its operating status to RUN and executes a program from the step 0.
