• No — Leave this box unchecked or uncheck it.

Do you want the equipment phase to skip any states that you aren’t using?
• Yes — Leave this box checked or check it.
• No — Uncheck this box.
Initial Step Index Are any of the state routines in ladder diagram or structured text?
• No — Skip this box.
• Yes — Go to the next question.
Do any of those state routines use step numbers?
• Yes — Type the number for the first step of each state.
• No — Skip this box.
The tag for the equipment phase has a StepIndex number. The controller resets the
StepIndex each time the equipment phase changes states. The controller resets the
StepIndex to the number you put in the Initial Step Index box.
External Sequencer Loss of Communication
Command
Are you using FactoryTalk Batch software to command this equipment phase?
• No — Skip this box.
• Yes — Go to the next question.
If the controller loses communication with FactoryTalk Batch software, what do you want
the equipment phase to do?
• Continue in its current state — Select None.
• Go to aborting — Select Abort.
• Go to holding — Select Hold.
• Go to stopping — Select Stop.
The equipment phase must still follow the state model. For example, it goes to holding only
if it is in running or restarting when communication fails.
