Output Override and I/O Update Instructions

The Immediate Input instruction updates one word of the input image table
data in advance of the normal scan sequence (Figure 7.3). The image table
word represents one module group in the I/O chassis.
The Immediate Input instruction is programmed in the condition area of
the ladder diagram rung. The Immediate Input instruction can be
considered as always true; it is always executed, whether or not other rung
conditions allow logic continuity.
Program the Immediate Input instruction only when necessary. This
depends on both the response time of the specific input devices and
modules and on the position of the rungs examining these inputs in the
program. It is best to program the Immediate Input instruction just before
inputs in the modules group are examined in the program.
