PMAC On-Line Command Specification 283

The RESUME PLC command cannot be used to restart execution of a PLC program that has

been stopped with a DISABLE PLC command. However, after a PLC has been stopped

with a DISABLE PLC command, if a PAUSE PLC command is then given for that PLC,

then a RESUME PLC command can be given to start operation at the point at which it has

been stopped.

Note that RESUME PLC 0..31 will restart all PLCs that have been paused, but not any

that have been disabled.

The line of the PLC at which execution will be resumed can be read with the LIST PLC,,1

command.

PLC programs are specified by number, and may be used singularly in this command, in a list

(separated by commas), or in a range of consecutively numbered programs.

If a motion or PLC program buffer is open when this command is sent to PMAC, the

command will be entered into that buffer for later execution.

I-variable I5 must be in the proper state to allow the PLC program(s) specified in this

command to execute.

Example

RESUME PLC 1

RES PLC 2,7

RESUME PLC 3,21

RESUME PLC 0..31

{Note: If the RESUME command refers to multiple PLCs, only those PLCs that have been stopped with

the PAUSE command will be resumed.}
