Null Step

The steps of a sequencer instruction can be viewed on the 1770-T3 Industrial
Terminal by moving the cursor to the sequencer instruction and pressing
1 for BCD display format or 0 for binary display
format.

The NULL STEPS shown in the above sequence are added to satisfy timing
requirements of the DL20.

In the following program example, steps 1 through 8 shown above represent
word 037-046 (octal) as defined in the sequencer instruction.

The resulting message would be displayed:

TIMER 032 = 1234

The variable 1234 shown on the above display and in the example steps is for
illustration purposes only. Actually, the free running timer 032 in the rung
examples to follow range from 0 to 999.
