Creating a Subroutine Program File (SLC 500 Processors Only)
You create subroutine program files for specific applications. For example, if your
application requires you to change the status file default values for Fault Routines,
Selectable Timed Interrupt Setpoint, or I/O Interrupts a subroutine is required. Valid
file numbers range from 3 to 255.
Note An SLC 5/04 processor is capable of supporting up to 60K words of ladder
program; however, the maximum size of any program file is 12K words. Therefore
you must structure your ladder program into more than one file. One way to do this
is have a main file (file 2) and at least one subroutine file (3–255).

Ladder file 3 is entered. If you had entered a higher number, 5 for example,
files 3, 4, and 5 would be listed; file 5 would be entered as “ladder”, and files 3
and 4 would be entered as “undefined”.
