Guys, I need to be able to write our Omron C1000H CPU from Run mode to Monitor mode directly, I am sure there is a system bit I can turn on to allow me to do this but I cant find it, can anyone help please......or confirm it cant be done.

If you are a member of the Citect forum, there is some information in the Citect knowledbase on how to do this. I cannot remember how as I have not had to do it now for so many years it is not funny.
If you cannot find it let me know and I will see what I can find for you.

I don't think there's a bit that selects the mode remotely, but I could be wrong...

Which host link are you using? I seem to remember that one of the DIP switches on the host link determined which mode it would start in when powered up....

Here is a bit of info from the Citect knowledgbase but I do not think the bit number is right and cannot find it in the manual. You may have to contact Omron for the undocumented bit number.
