"Individual structures" Option
If you selected the "Individual structures" option, the structures of the steps are
entered in the instance DB as separate sections, as follows:
Structure Name
Length in Bytes
<Step1>
32
...
<Stepn>
32
Internal access uses the step number or the step name followed by the name of
the structure element.
This means that the following access is possible in conditions or actions:
•
S003.X
•
S017.T
•
DRY.X
External access uses only the step name (structure name) followed by the name of
the structure element, as follows:
•
DRY.X
•
DRY.T

Sequencer Status
The sequencer status area consists of several components (arrays or structures)
containing information about the status of the sequencer, as follows:
•
Permanent Instructions Component
•
Index Arrays Component
•
Mode Component (Mode of Operation, MOP)
•
Activation Time Component
•
Group Bits Component
The sequencer status area starts at the address: a = FB parameter
transition array length(s)+step array length(s).
