Title: Exit program before 1st stage
Post by: davidbgtx on April 09, 2015, 12:45:54 PM

Is it okay to have a rung to exit a program before the 1st stage, rather than put the exit in every stage? I want to be able to exit no mater what stage is active. It seems to work okay, but is this the best practice?

I do it all the time.
You can use a NC the same bit that is tied to the RUN, and it makes a great way to supervise a program block.

That's exactly what I did, I guess it just seemed too easy. Thanks
