6. Programming Information
6.1 Devices and registers
The T1/T1S program consists of bit-based instructions that handle ON/OFF information,
such as contact and coil instructions, and register-based (16-bit) instructions, such as
those for data transfer and arithmetic operations.
Devices are used to store the ON/OFF information of contacts and coils, and registers
are used to store 16-bit data.
Devices are divided into six types:
X
External input devices
Y
External output devices
R
Auxiliary relay devices
S
Special devices
T.
Timer devices
C.
Counter devices
Registers are divided into eight types:
XW
External input registers
YW
External output registers
RW
Auxiliary relay registers
SW
Special registers
T
Timer registers
C
Counter registers
D
Data registers
I, J, K Index registers
Device and register numbers
X devices share the same memory area as XW registers. Device X014, for example,
represents the number 4 bit in the XW01 register.

Thus, "X014 is ON" means that bit number 4 of XW01 is 1.
Y, R, and S devices work in a similar manner.
