By default the software configure the controller to be "Start in Previous State", however this value can be changed:


There are four possible states for the Starting Mode parameter:

• Start In Previous State : The logic controller starts in the state that it was in before it was stopped
• Start in Stop : The logic controller does not automatically start application execution
• Start in Run : The logic controller automatically starts application execution given run criteria, such as the presence and charge of a battery, are met.
• Unconditional start in Run : The logic controller automatically starts application execution even if the controller battery is absent or discharged.
