Loading and Starting Panel Programs
A Panel program is created using PCS and then transferred (loaded) to the Panel through the
serial interface when Teach Mode is selected. To start an application, RUN Mode must be
selected. The following sections outline how to load, start, and reload the operating system.
Loading the Panel Program
1. Connect the PC (COM1 or COM2) to the Panel Controller (always IF0) using the
appropriate serial cable (see Appendix A).
Note
If you are using a printer with the C400, the printer must be disconnected while
the Panel program is loaded.
