Step Instructions

In CP1E series PLCs, STEP(008)/SNXT(009) can be used together to create step programs.

Note Work bits are used as the control bits for A, B, C and D.

SNXT(009): STEP
START
Controls progression to the next step of the program. Step Ladder section start instruction
STEP(008): STEP
DEFINE
Indicates the start of a step. Repeats the same step pro-
gram until the conditions for progression to the next step
are established.
