Manual Mode

Manual Mode is a way to interface with the controller if you don't want to deal with processes and state machines. Manual Mode gives a straightforward input method to control the outputs. This is a good place to start when initially setting up the system to verify I/O connections, or to finish up miscellaneous tasks that aren't programmed as processes.

Enter into Manual Mode by checking the appropriate box in the Run/Stop Processes sidebar. Enterring into Manual Mode will disable all active processes. This is because Manual Mode controls every output, defaulting to them Direct Off, so the processes are disabled to avoid output control contention.

Since Manual Mode doesn't have exit conditions, no Timers, Dins or Wins are displayed.

All settings must be saved via the "Apply" button for them to take effect. It is good practice to manually press the "Refresh" button every time after the "Apply" button to ensure correct data is being displayed.
