5.3.3 Contacts
You modify the current flow with the contacts in the easyE4 circuit diagram. Contacts
such as N/O contacts are set to 1 when they are closed and 0 when they are opened.
In the easyE4 circuit diagram you can wire contacts as make or break contacts. N/C
contacts are indicated with a horizontal line above the operand concerned.
An easyE4 device operates with different contacts that you arrange in any order in
the contact fields of the circuit diagram.
