SebOber Posts: 34 Rating: (3)	I'm wondering if there is a way to change the operation mode of a d425 to run using either IO or the execution system?

The D425 can not change the operation mode to RUN by itself from userprogram or so. Regards Christoph

Set it to 3 (RUN) and the CPU will switch to operation mode RUN. Or you use the IT Diag Websites on the SIMOTIÒN D to switch the CPU to RUN. Regards Christoph

SebOber Posts: 34 Rating: (3)	I'm trying now to set operationmode to 3 through the HMI. However the only tag that i can find to get to is under "_startupdata" as far as I understand, that just controls the initial operation mode when power is put on the PLC. The only other way is to use _changeoperationmode(operationmode := 'enumoperationmode') however 'run' is not a command you can pass to the function. Nor do I know how to get that function to the HMI without the PLC already being in a run state. The D435 does have 'modeofoperation' which looks like it could be controled through HMI and/or program. However the D425 does not support 'modeofoperation'
