Web Server in Force Mode
WARNING
•
In Force mode, the system may be manipulated to such an extent that can result in
life-threatening personal injury and damage to materials.
•
Only use Force mode if you are very familiar with the connected system and know at
all times the consequences that your actions will have.
Note:
Safety related modules (EP-19xx) cannot be forced.
The force mode allows you to carry out functional tests or preconfigure the station prior to
commissioning, even if sensors have not yet been connected.
To do so, you must change the operating mode of the web server.

Web Server
If the force mode is activated during an established field bus connection a diagnose alarm is
generated. Depending on parametrized alarm behavior the PLC can continue to transmit process
data and the RSTi-EP station will process them for all unforced channels. However, forced channels
will ignore any process data and behave according to forced values.
To enable force mode: From the menu bar, click on Force and enable.
