Why do I get the error message " Controller cannot change operating mode at this stage. Verify that its application is appropriate and the Run/Stop switch or input is in the correct position." when I try to start the controller in simulation mode?
Issue:
Error message "Controller cannot change operating mode at this stage. Verify that its application is appropriate and the Run/Stop switch or input is in the correct position. If the controller is in HALTED state, you must initialize it" when starting the controller in simulation mode

M221, EcoStruxure Machine Expert Basic
Resolution:
The error message "Controller cannot change operating mode at this stage. Verify that its application is appropriate and the Run/Stop switch or input is in the correct position. If the controller is in HALTED state, you must initialize it" is cause by having a run/stop input configured in the EcoStruxure Machine Expert Basic program. You must uncheck the run/stop input in order to start/Run the PLC in simulation mode.
