PLC Reset and Initialize & Reset

[UB4Y 0]

Hello.

Will the project be erased If I perfom PLC Reset via Visilogic?

If no, what kind of variables wil be reset?

And what differences between Reset and Initialize & Reset?

1. Project is not erased.

2. Reset equivalent to power cycle.

3. Initialize & Reset clean ALL memory registers and make Reset.

*&Data Tables are not affected by Reset, nor by Initialize & Reset.

You can find all this information in Help file.

B.R.

To make it a bit simpler: Reset is a soft boot - exactly the same as power cycling without having to remove power. Nothing is lost.

Initialize & reset erases the values in all the memory registers (MB, MI, ML, etc). It does not affect any other aspect of the PLC (program, data tables, etc are retained).

Of course if there are any power-ups in the program, the initialized registers will obtain those values immediately after the reset.

Thanks for your explanation. Just now it is all clear for me.
