Jump Instructions and

Subroutine Prorgramming

Chapter 17

17-6

The boundary marker subroutine area appears. A Subroutine Area
instruction can only be programmed after the last instruction in the main
program. The Subroutine Area instruction cannot be inserted between
rungs in the main program. It requires 1 word of memory, it can be
programmed only once, and it cannot be removed except by clearing the
memory. You cannot nest subroutine programs by inserting a Jump To
Subroutine instruction within the subroutine area, but it is possible to jump
from one subroutine to another using a Jump instruction.
