Hi,
I am currently reviewing one application for CPU 1769-L32E created with RSLogix5000 ver17.
I came accross very strange way of programming using outputs in series. In one example I foung three output contacts OTE, OTL and OTU in the same rung.
Please explain what exact problem could be a result of this approach.
Regards,
Filip

None. RsLogix 5000 allows output instructions to be placed in series. In the input and output of an output instruction is the same. Saves branches.
 
just dont put inputs inbetween the outputs or you might have that same rung execute on different scans for the different outputs.

I think this is where RSlogix5000 lets you hang yourself.
