The frequency with which tasks, or application programs, read their

inputs and write their outputs depends on the language being used.

Ladder logic and control block tasks read inputs once at the

beginning of each scan and write outputs once at the end of each

scan. BASIC tasks read an input and write an output for each

reference throughout the scan.

4.3.1

Ladder Logic Task Example

RUN

STARTPL

1050

light

RUN

The symbolic names RUN and STARTPL reference the output

modules that were defined in the configuration.The trailing at symbol

@" is not used in ladder logic tasks. The symbolic name light" is

local to the ladder logic task and does not have I/O associated with it.

4.3.2

BASIC Task Example

1000 LOCAL LIGHT@

\!Fault light

1010 COMMON STARTPL@

\!Start Command

2000 COMMON RUN@

\!Line run

3000 !

4000 !

5000 RUN@ = NOT LIGHT@ AND ( STARTPL@ OR RUN@)

5500 !

6000 END
The symbolic names RUN@ and STARTPL@ reference the output

modules that were defined in the configuration. The symbolic name

LIGHT@ is local to the BASIC task and does not have I/O associated

with it.

4.3.3

Control Block Task Example

2400 COMMON STARTPL@

\!Start command

2500 LOCAL MOMENTARY@

\!Momentary output

3000 !

4000 !

5000 CALL TRANSITION( INPUT=MOMENTARY@,

OUTPUT=STARTPL@)

5500 !

6000 END
The symbolic name STARTPL@ references the output module that

was defined in the configuration. The symbolic name

MOMENTARY@ is local to the control block task and does not have

I/O associated with it.
