Create the Ladder Diagram program
1. Locate the Direct Contact instruction in the Toolbox window, and drag-and-drop it onto the left side of the rung.
The “+” icon on the rung indicates the location of a drop point for the instruction. After adding the instruction,
your rung should look like the following.
2. After inserting the Direct Contact instruction, the Variable Selector dialog box appears and you can select the
variable or I/O point to assign to this instruction.
3. In the Variable Selector dialog box, select the I/O - Micro850 tab to see the list of I/O points.

TIP
4. For this example, assign an embedded I/O point to this instruction. Select _IO_EM_DI_00, then in the Alias
column of _IO_EM_DI_00, type “Start PB” and click OK.
An alias is an optional parameter you can use to further define a local variable or a global variable
5. Your rung should look like the following.
6. Locate the Direct Coil instruction in the Toolbox, and drag-and-drop it onto the far right side of the rung. Assign it
to the embedded I/O point, _IO_EM_DO_00 with the alias “Motor”. Your rung should look like the following.

Chapter 3 Create and Save a Connected Components Workbench Project
7. Locate the Reverse Contact instruction in the Toolbox, and drag-and-drop it onto your rung , just to the right of the
Direct Contact instruction. Assign it to the embedded I/O point _IO_EM_DI_01 with the alias “Stop PB”.
Yo u r
rung should look like the following.
8. Locate the Branch instruction in the Toolbox, and drag-and-drop it to the drop point to the left of the Direct
Contact instruction on the far left side of the rung.
9. Your rung should look like the following.
10. Drag-and-drop a Direct Contact instruction onto the Branch instruction that you just added. Assign it to the
embedded I/O point _IO_EM_DO_00. Your rung should look like the following.
You have completed creating your motor seal-in circuit. When the Start Motor push button is toggled on (while the Stop
push button is not being pushed), you complete the rung circuit to the output so that the motor turns on. Once the motor
is running, you can release the Start Motor push button because the branch circuit around the push button seals it in. The
only way to interrupt the circuit is to push the Stop Motor push button. This breaks the circuit, which turns the motor off
and drops out the seal-in branch circuit. The Stop Motor push button can then be released and the motor remains off until
the Start Motor push button is pushed again.

Build and Download Project
In this chapter, you will learn how to download a project to your Micro800 controller. Before you can download a project
to the controller, you must build it to verify that there are no errors with the programming. The Micro850 controller is
used in the examples shown in this chapter.
Build and Download the Project to your Micro800 Controller
1. To build the project, click Device -> Build.
When a build is performed, the project is automatically saved before the build is performed.
The Output window and Status bar shows the current status of the build.
2. Connect the PC to your Micro800 controller.
For Micro850 controllers
Connect the USB cable from the PC to the USB port on your Micro850 controller. If this is the first time a specific
controller has been connected to this PC over USB, then you must wait for the controller to be detected and the
USB driver to be configured.
For Micro820 controllers
Connect the serial cable from the PC to the embedded serial port on your Micro820 controller, or connect the USB
cable from the PC to the USB port on the 2080-REMLCD. If this is the first time you are connecting your
Micro820 controller through serial, see
controller.

Chapter 4 Build and Download Project
3. Download your project to your Micro800 controller by right-clicking the controller in your Project Organizer, and
select Download. If this project was modified since the last build, then a build will automatically be executed before
the download is performed.
4. If there are no errors in your project, the Connection Browser dialog box appears. Browse for your Micro800
controller by expanding USB or DF1, then select the controller and click OK.

Build and Download Project Chapter 4
5. In the Download Confirmation dialog box, select Download.
When you download a project, you can choose if you either want to do a typical Download (project values are not
downloaded and variables are set to their initial value if it exists, or reset if no initial value exists) or Download with
Project Values. Downloading with project values may take longer than a typical download without project values.
Project values generally are populated by an upload with project values or can be entered manually in the variable
editor.
Initial value has priority, even if there is a project value and you have chosen to download with project values. If a
variable has been configured for Data Protection, then neither initial value or project value will change its value upon
download. The logical value in the controller will be preserved after a download.
6. Downloading in progress.
7. When the download is complete, you are prompted to put the controller back in Remote Run Mode. Click Yes.
