FX Series Programmable Controlers Applied Instructions 5
5-86
d) If the SEGL instruction is suspended durin
mid-operation, when it is restarted it will start
from the be
innin
of its c
cle and not from its last status achieved.
e) The SEGL instruction ma
be used
ONCE
on FX controllers with CPU versions lower than
3.07. FX units with CPU ver 3.07 or
reater and all FX
2C
units can operate a maximum of
TWO
SEGL instructions.
Selecting the correct value for operand n
The selection of parameter n depends on 4 factors;
1) The lo
ic t
pe used for the PLC output
2) The lo
ic t
pe used for the seven se
ment data lines
3) The lo
ic t
pe used for the seven se
ment strobe si
nal
4) How many sets of displays are to be used
There are two t
pes of lo
ic s
stem available, positive lo
ic and ne
ative lo
ic. Dependin
on
the t
pe of s
stem, i.e. which elements have positive or ne
ative lo
ic the value of n can be
selected from the table below with the final reference to the number of sets of seven se
ment
displa
s bein
used:

With a source output, when the
output is HIGH the internal lo

With a sink output, when the output
is LOW the internal lo
