State
The logic 0 or 1 condition in processor memory or at a circuit input or output.

Station
Any programmable controller, computer, or data terminal connected to, and
communicating by means of, a data highway.

Storage
See Memory.

Storage Bit
A bit in a data table word which can be set or reset, but is not associated with a
physical I/O terminal point.

Subroutine
A program segment in the ladder diagram that performs a specific task and is
available for use.

Subroutine Area (SBR)
A portion of memory where subroutines are stored.

Syntax
Rules governing the structure of a language.

System
A set of one or more programmable controllers, I/O devices and modules,
computers, the associated software, peripherals, terminals, and communication
networks, that together, provide a means of performing information processing
for controlling machines or processes.

Tasks
A set of instructions, data, and control information capable of being executed by
a CPU to accomplish a specific purpose.

Terminal Address
A 5-, 6-, 7-, 8-, or 9-digit number which identifies a single I/O terminal. It is
also related directly to a specific image table bit address.

Trailing Edge One-Shot
A programming technique that sets a bit for scan when its input condition has
made a true-to-false transition. The true-to-false transition represents the
trailing edge of the input pulse.

True
As related to processor instructions, an enabled logic state.

Underflow Bit
A bit that is set to indicate the result of an operation which is less than the
minimum value that can be contained in a register.
