Immediate Boolean
The DL205 Micro PLCs can usually complete an operation cycle in a matter of milliseconds.
However, in some applications you may not be able to wait a few milliseconds until the next
I/O update occurs. The DL205 PLCs offer Immediate input and outputs which are special
boolean instructions that allow reading directly from inputs and writing directly to outputs
during the program execution portion of the CPU cycle. You may recall that this is normally
done during the input or output update portion of the CPU cycle. The immediate
instructions take longer to execute because the program execution is interrupted while the
CPU reads or writes the I/O point. This function is not normally done until the read inputs
or the write outputs portion of the CPU cycle.
NOTE: Even though the immediate input instruction reads the most current status from the input point, it
only uses the results to solve that one instruction. It does not use the new status to update the image
register. Therefore, any regular instructions that follow will still use the image register values. Any
immediate instructions that follow will access the I/O again to update the status. The immediate output
instruction will write the status to the I/O and update the image register.

Input Image Register
Th e CPU reads the inputs from
the local base and stores the
status in an input image

Immediate instruction does
not use the input image

status from the module
immediately.
