Description

Use the CC_PLC_SYNC function to synchronize to the PLC-5
programmable-controller ladder scan. This routine will put the calling task
to sleep until the PLC-5 programmable controller signals the start of a new
ladder scan. Due to the multitasking of OS-9, it should be noted that this
function is most effective when only one task is synchronized to the PLC-5
programmable-controller scan and that task is a higher priority than the
other tasks.
