Basic Operating Procedure Section 1-6
7. Transferring the
Programs
When the programs has been created in the CX-Programmer, they must be
transferred to the Motion Control Modules through the Coordinator Module.
8. Testing Operation
8-a) I/O Wiring Checks Check Output Wiring
With the FQM1 in PROGRAM mode, force-set and force-reset output bits
from the CX-Programmer and verify that the corresponding outputs operate
properly.
Check Input Wiring
Activate input devices, such as sensors and switches, and verify that the cor-
responding input indicators light. Also, use the Bit/Word Monitor operation
from the CX-Programmer to verify the operation of the corresponding input
bits.
8-b) Trial Operation Use the CX-Programmer to switch each Module to MONITOR mode.
Using the CX-Programmer
8-c) Monitoring and
Debugging
There are several ways to monitor and debug FQM1 operation, including the
force-set and force-reset operations, differentiation monitoring, time chart
monitoring, data tracing, and online editing.
Force-Set and Force-Reset
When necessary, the force-set and force-reset operations can be used to
force the status of bits and check program execution.
From the CX-Programmer, select the bit to be force-set or force-reset and
then select Force On or Off from the PLC menu.
Differentiation Monitor
The differentiation monitor operation can be used to monitor the up or down
differentiation of particular bits. Use the following procedure from the CX-Pro-
grammer.
