Sequential Program Notion

Notion A brief description on sequential program is provided before on programming.
Sequential program indicates that, the program which logically controls the
machine and its relevant devices. For the personnel of electrical automation
control engineering, the widely-used control flow is based on sequential control,
from which, sequential program, a programming method for PLC control, is
generated.

Numerical control system firstly converts the program to a format, then CPU
decodes and operates it. CPU rapidly reads each instruction in the storage, and
operates program via arithmetic operation. Sequential program starts from the
ladder diagram and other standard PLC languages. The ladder diagram can be
understood as the execution order of CPU arithmetic operation.

The above is performed by PLC programming software, the role of which is to

document sequential program.

HNC-8-PLC Programming specification 1. PLC Summary

Allocation Interface
Interface

PLC interacts with external devices by external I/O. After control object is
identified and relevant input/output signals are calculated, corresponding
interfaces can be allocated to devices.

For easier debugging to PLC of numerical control system, input/output points of

panel interfaces for series 818 have been fixed, and for that of other devices,
refer to the electrical principle drawing.

Allocation

Panel points have been allocated in the standard PLC programs of Series 8
system, user doesn’t need to change their definitions. At programming time, user
uses other intermediate registers instead of input/output registers, to program.
Several system interfaces bas been described in Appendix 7, to make a better
understand of panel point distribution of series 8. Y487 and Y488 are output
addresses of digital tubes on panel, X480 and X491 are panel input signals, and
Y480 and Y486 are panel output signals.

HNC-8-PLC Programming specification 1. PLC Summary

Sequential Program
PLC sequential control is achieved by software, and the principle of it is
different from that of common relay circuit. Thus, the principle of sequential
control should be fully understood at the time of designing PLC sequential
program.。

Execution In general relay control circuit, each relay may operate at the same time. In the
of figure below, when relay A acts, relay D and E can act at the same time (in the
sequential event of contact B and C being closed). In PLC sequential control, relays act in
program sequence. When relay A operates, relay D operates first, and then relay E
operates (see figure 2.1(a)), that is, each relay operates in the order described in
the ladder diagram.

Figure 2.1 (a)

Figure A and B show the movement difference between relay circuit and PLC
program.

Figure2.1（b）

Relay The actions in figure 2.1b(A) and figure 2.1b(B) are the same. After A (button
circuit switch) is turned on, B and C are on, with current flowing through coil B and C.
B is cut off after C is switched on.

7
HNC-8-PLC Programming specification 1. PLC Summary

PLC Similar with relay circuit, in figure 2.1b(A), after A (button switch) is turned on,
program B and C are on, and B is switched off after a PLC program cycle. However, in
figure 2.1b(B), after A (button switch) is turned on, C is switched on, but B is not.

Loop Sequential program executes from the beginning of the ladder diagram until the
execution end, after that, it goes back to execute the begging of the ladder diagram again,
which is called loop execution.

That execution time from the begging to the end is called loop period. The loop
period of PLC2 depends on the controlled steps. The shorter the loop period, the
rapider the response of signal.

Prior execution

8
HNC-8-PLC Programming specification 1. PLC Summary

Sequential program consists of three parts: initialization program, the first level program, the
second level program.

The initialization program is performed once when system starts.

The first level program executes every 1ms.

If the first level is longer, the total execution time will be longer. Therefore, you should document
as short program of the first level as possible. The second level program can be automatically
seperated into n parts, and executes every n ms.

Segmentation of the second level program

Segmentation of the second level program is to execute the first level program. When the number
of segmentations is n, the implementation process is as below diagram:

9
HNC-8-PLC Programming specification 1. PLC Summary

When the last part of the second level program has executed, the program starts from the
beginning again. In the event of n segmentations, the time for one loop execution is n ms (1ms X
n). The first level program executes every 1ms, and the second level program executes every n X
1ms. If the steps of the first level program increases, the steps of the second level program will
correspondingly decrease within 1ms, then more segmentations will be gotten, and program
processing time will be longer. For this reason, the first level program should be documented as
briefly as possible.

The first level program only handles short pulse signal, which includes emergency stop, axis
over-travel, and the like.

When subprogram is used, sequential program consists of:

Sequential Program Composition

Compositio For traditional PLC, ladder diagram can be only established sequentially. The
n ladder diagram language, which allows structured program, has the following
advantages:

‹ The program is easily to be understood and documented.

‹ It is more convenient to find out programming errors.

‹ It is easy to find out reasons of causing errors.

There are three main structured programming means

Subprogra
m

Subprogram regards the ladder diagram block as the processing unit.

Nesting The combination of documented subprograms forms structured program.

Conditiona
l branch

Main program executes recurrently and detects whether condition is satisfied or

not. If condition is satisfied, corresponding subprogram is executed; if condition
is not satisfied, corresponding subprogram is not executed.

HNC-8-PLC Programming specification 2. Basic instruction

Basic Instruction
Sequential program is mainly composed of coil, contact, symbol and function
block. The segments, by which elements of ladder diagram are jointed, form the
logical relationship of sequential program. Sequential program can be described
by ladder diagram language, as well as statement list language which is written
by mnemonics (LD, AND, OR, etc.) and register address. Ladder diagram is
written by coil contact of relay and function block.

As the international standard of IEC61131-3 lays out, ladder diagram language

and statement list language can convert each other logically, and ambiguity
caused by this can be avoided through some programming methods. In
HNC_LADDER_WIN(V1.0) editing software, you can see that the two
languages can mutually transform.

To better understand documenting and inner-making of sequential program, and

to avoid errors in logic or understanding, see the explanation of basic concepts as
following:

Type:

PLC instruction of series 8 is divided into basic instruction and function

instruction.

Basic instruction

Basic instruction is the most basic and most common part of sequential program,
with a total of 19. It executes one-bit manipulation.

Function instruction

Function instruction can perform the functions that is hard to be done by basic
elements, and it can simplify programming.

Storage of logical outcome (ST)

Stack register (to store the intermediate result calculated) Result being executed

Storage of logical outcome is a stack-like structure. Result of the current

instruction is saved in ST0. When reading instruction such as LD and LDI
appears, result of current instruction is needed to be saved in stack. When ANB
or ORB instruction is encountered, the storage makes ST1 result out stack and

15
HNC-8-PLC Programming specification 2. Basic instruction

logically calculate with result in ST0, which then is saved in ST0. Therefore,
when sequential program is documented with statement list instruction, ANB and
ORB must correspond to the input instructions after the first instruction, one to
one; otherwise, errors may occur.

Storage of multi-output logical outcome

The role of this storage is similar with that of logical outcome storage. It is to
save result of current node, and is usually used for multi-output instruction with
conditional judgements (see detailed command instruction for the usage of MPS,
MRD, MPP). What differs from storage of logical outcome is that, it permits
reading result of node without stack out of the result. Only when the embedded
use of multi-output function is needed is storage push performed. Similarly, MPS
and MPP instructions must be used correspondingly; otherwise, logical errors
may occur.

Pre and Post

Pre indicates that other elements can be connected to the front of the element,
and post indicates that other elements can be connected to the back of the
element.

is limited to input of 20 temperature acquisition signals. Therefore, the range of values for
temperature sensor number is zero to nineteen.

Parameter 2: group number of X register corresponding to the digital signal of temperature

acquisition.

Parameter 3: thermocouple grid type (its default value is 0. 1: the corresponding model is built to
calculate temperature, by the user parameter specified by “parameter 4” which includes the lowest
and highest (the temperature corresponding to the voltage of 6.7 V) temperatures; 2: temperature

sensor of PT100 is supported, and thermocouple grid of HIO-1075 is connected; 3: temperature

sensor of KTY84-300 is supported, and thermocouple grid of HIO-1076 is connected; 4: the
relationship between the measured temperature and the resistance calculated by the entered value
of DA is linear. The corresponding model is built to calculate temperature, by the user parameter
(P parameter) specified by “parameter 4” which includes the lowest and highest temperatures, as
well as minimum and maximum resistances (unit: 0.01Ω).

Note: The thermocouple grid type of 2 and 3 are standard configurations, where the corresponding
bus thermocouple grid can be connected, there are models of corresponding temperature in system,
and the value of P parameter doesn’t need to be set.

Parameter 4: set the range of acquisition temperature for temperature sensor by user parameter (P
parameter). As shown in the figure below, P30 specifies the acquisition for the lowest
temperatures, and P31 specifies the acquisition for the highest temperatures (the temperature
corresponding to the voltage of 6.7 V, unit: degree). If the thermocouple grid type is 2 or 3, set
value of P parameter will not be read.

Introduction on Status Word and Control Word

Overview

The status word and control word are the most direct way of the interaction
between CNC and PLC. The status data of system can be obtained through the
status word, and you can write control word to change the system state. In the
system series 8, F represents status word with its property being read-only, G
represents control word with its property being read-write.

However, to limit the use of some key functions of system, some control words
are restricted, or are invisible to user. Please read following constraints of status
word and control word carefully.

Usage

Range of Status words and control words can be divided into three types for each of its
application function in the system. They all have serviceable range, refer to the configuration
manual for details.

Axis Status Word

Overview 80 status words are configured for each axis. Each status word has a 16-bit byte.
The first row indicates the bits from 0 to 7, and the second row indicates the bits
from 8 to 15. The axis status words need to be used with the logical number
offset of axis.
