Overview of Structured Text Programming

from cleared to set. The ABL instruction does not execute when tag_xic stays set
or when tag_xic is cleared.
In structured text, if you write this example as:
IF tag_xic THEN ABL(0,serial_control);
END_IF;
The ABL instruction will execute every scan that tag_xic is set, not just when
tag_xic transitions from cleared to set.
If you want the ABL instruction to execute only when tag_xic transitions from
cleared to set, you have to condition the structured text instruction. Use a
one-shot to trigger execution.
osri_1.InputBit := tag_xic;
OSRI(osri_1);
IF (osri_1.OutputBit) THEN
ABL(0,serial_control);
END_IF;
Constructs can be programmed alone or nested within other constructs.
