I mena after power loss it is possible to give this restart. /// this is the help from simatic manager// Hot Restart Following a power outage in RUN mode followed by a return of power, S7-400 CPUs run through an initialization routine and then automatically execute a hot restart. During a hot restart, the user program is resumed at the point at which its execution was interrupted. The section of user program that had not been executed before the power outage is known as the remaining cycle. The remaining cycle can also contain time-driven and interrupt driven program sections. A hot restart is only permitted when the user program was not modified in STOP mode (for example, by reloading a modified block) and when there are no other reasons for a warm restart. Both a manual and automatic hot restart are possible.
