22 columns)
As shown above, the Ladder Diagram can be divided into many small cells. There are total 88 cells (8 rows X 11 columns)
for this example Ladder Diagram. One cell can accommodate one element. A completed Ladder Diagram can be formed by
connecting all the cells together according to the specific requirements. The terminologies related to Ladder Diagram are
illustrated below.
c
Contact
Contact is an element with open or short status. One kind of contact is called "Input contact"(reference number prefix with X)
and its status reference from the external signals (the input signal comes from the input terminal block). Another one is
called "Relay contact" and its status reflects the status of relay coil (please refer to
d
). The relation between the reference
number and the contact status depends on the contact type. The contact elements provided by FB series PLC include: A
contact, B contact, up/down differential (TU/TD) contacts and Open/Short contacts. Please refer to
f
for more details.
d
Relay
Same as the conventional relay, it consists of a Coil and a Contact as shown in the diagram below.
