Command Reset origin

Symbol: Command Reset origin 1:

Function: The command resets all variables of the active PLC project, including the remanent variables (RETAIN, PERSISTENT variables), to their initialization values and deletes the application program from the controller.

Call: Menu PLC, TwinCAT PLC Toolbar Options

Requirement: The PLC project is in online mode.

A reset deactivates the currently set breakpoints in the program. If you select the command while the program is stopping at a breakpoint, you will be asked whether the current cycle is to be terminated. Alternatively, TwinCAT carries out the reset immediately. However, not all runtime systems are able to perform a reset without terminating the current cycle.
