PBOOT allows a PLC program to run on power up. Follow the steps below to add this to your PLC program.

  1. In ACRVIEW open PLC editor window.

  1. Click on View from the menu options, select "CODE EDITOR."

  1. Return to PLC window, it should now show line numbered code, add PBOOT to first line as show in the example below.

This example runs on power up. The PLC program requires "input" bit 24 to remain true for 2000 ms. "Output" bit 32 is then activated. "Timer output" bit 1552 turns on bit 1052 which is the program 0 "run request flag."
