5.3.22 Synchronize IP (Mode 99)

Synchronize IP
Mode
This mode must be selected when the IP 266 is put into operation, as it synchro-
nizes communication between the PLC and the IP 266.
This mode must be started after every PLC cold (power off/power on) or warm
(STOP RUN) restart and after every IP 266 reset. If this mode is not started, it
will not be possible to invoke any other mode.
As in the case of the Information modes, this mode does not return information
to the STEP 5 program.
Note:
This mode is not needed to work with COM 266.
