2 Error Troubleshooting Methods
 Safe Mode Operation
If the Controller is started when the CPU Unit is in Safe Mode, the CPU Unit will start in PROGRAM
mode even if the startup mode is set to RUN mode. This increases the ratio of system service pro-
cessing that is performed by the CPU Unit, which makes it easier for the Sysmac Studio to go online
with the CPU Unit. You can also use Safe Mode when you do not want to execute the user program.
The CPU Unit will generate an observation level Controller event and record a Safe Mode event in
the event log.
Additional Information
Operation in Safe Mode depends on the unit version of the CPU Unit.
