4 Step Ladder Instructions
DVP-PLC Application Manual
4-8
Single sequence: There is only one sequence without alternative divergence, alternative convergence, simultaneous
divergence and simultaneous convergence in a program.
Complicated single sequence: There is only one sequence with alternative divergence, alternative convergence,
simultaneous divergence and simultaneous convergence in a program.
Multiple sequences: There are more than one sequence in a program, maximum 10 sequences, S0 ~ S9.
5. Separation of sequence: Multiple sequences are allowed to be written into the step ladder diagram.
a) See the diagram in the right hand side. There are two
sequences S0 and S1. The program writes in S0 ~ S30 first
and S1 ~ S43 next.
b) You can designate a step in the sequence to jump to any step
in another sequence.
c) When the condition below S21 is true, the sequence will jump
to step S42 in sequence S1, which is called “separating the
step”.

6. Restrictions on diverging sequence: See 4.5 for example
a) You can use maximum 8 diverged steps in a divergence sequence.
b) You can use maximum 16 loops in multiple divergence sequences or in simultaneous sequences combined into
one sequence.
c) You can designate a step in the sequence to jump to any step in another sequence.
7. Reset of the step and the inhibiting output:
a) Use ZRST instruction to reset a step to be Off.
b) Make M1034 = On to inhibit output Y.
8. Latched step:
The On/Off status of the latched step will be memorized when the power of the PLC is switched off. When the
PLC is re-powered, the status before the power-off will be recovered and the execution will resume. Please be
aware of the area for the latched steps.
9. Special auxiliary relays and special registers: See 4.6refer to chapter 4.6 IST instruction for more details.
