The following table defines the control/status bits

Bit:

Definition:

EN

Rung Enable

ES

Error Step indicator; if true, sequencer is in an error step

ER

Error; true if runtime error detected

ST

Step Transition; true for one PLC scan if step transition
occurred

ME

Message Enable; true if message is to be sent

TE

Timer Enable; true if timer is used in current step

RS

Reset Sequencer; a status bit; if true, sequencer is in normal
run mode; if false, sequencer is in step zero mode.

DV

Future use

PC

Precheck; if 0, precheck is enabled and the SDS, at state
transition, will check if the destination step expected inputs
match the mapped inputs; if 1, precheck is disabled and the
SDS instruction, at state transition, will not check the
destination step expected inputs

MR

Mismatch Reset; a control bit; if the SDS instruction is in a
mismatch condition, setting this bit to 1 will release the
mismatch check and the SDS instruction will start from step 0
to find a step to enter

TB

Time base; the instruction entry allows the programmer to
select either .01 or 1.0 second time base for the timer

You can obtain information about the control file from the Extended Status
screen in the SDS instruction. The Extended Status screen provides the
status of specific bits in the control file in user-friendly terms.

Execution Times

Tables A.I and A.J show the execution times per program scan for a DFA
instruction in the PLC-5 or the PLC-5/250 with 8, 16, and 32 I/O.
