4. Operation

32 EPSON RC+ 5.0 (Ver.5.4) User's Guide Rev.4

This allows you leave the controller in Auto mode to monitor operation, or switch the

controller to Program mode so you can edit and debug programs. If you choose to switch

to Program mode, then the remote device cannot start programs until remote I/O has been

enabled from the Run window.

Connecting while tasks are running from Remote Control or OP

If the c

ontroller is running tasks with the control device set to Remote or OP, you can

connect the PC to the controller to monitor operation. For example, you can connect to a

controller that is running tasks to temporarily monitor display output, tasks, and I/O, and

then disconnect while tasks continue to run.

If the project on the PC is the same as on the controller, you will see the following message

box when connection is established:

If the project on the PC is not that same as the project in the controller, you will see the

following message box when connection is established:

If you choose to monitor controller operation, the Run window will open if EPSON RC+

5.0 is started in Program mode. If EPSON RC+ 5.0 is started in Auto mode, the Operator

window will appear. From the Run window or Operator window, you can view display

output from Print statements executing in the application. You can also use the Task

Manager and I/O monitor.

When monitoring controller operation, the controller remains in Auto mode. You cannot

stop tasks from EPSON RC+ 5.0, because the control device is not PC. If you want to

switch the controller to Program mode, you must first stop all tasks from the current

control device, then connect to the controller from EPSON RC+ 5.0 and choose to switch

to Program mode (see the previous section Connecting while control device is not PC and

tasks are not running).

Disconnecting while tasks are running

ou can only disconnect from the controller with tasks running when the control device is

set to Remote.

1. Stop communications with the controller by selecting Offline from the Connections

dropdown list on the toolbar.

2. You may now disconnect the communications cable between the PC and the controller.

Tasks will continue to run in the controller.
