1.9 Basic Program Design Examples
Example 1 - Stop First latched circuit
When X1 (START) = ON and X2 (STOP) = OFF, Y1 will be ON.
If X2 is turned on, Y1 will be OFF. This is a Stop First circuit
because STOP button has the control priority than START
Example 2 - Start First latched circuit
When X1 (START) = ON and X2 (STOP) = OFF, Y1 will be ON
and latched. If X2 is turned ON, Y1 remains ON. This is a Start
First circuit because START button has the control priority than
STOP
Example 3 - Latched circuit of SET and RST
The diagram opposite are latched circuits consist of RST and
SET instructions.
In PLC processing principle, the instruction close to the end of
the program determines the final output status of Y1. Therefore,
if both X1 and X2 are ON, RST which is lower than SET forms a
