4.4.1 Continuation Contact
A continuation contact continues the LD logic from the last previously-executed rung in the block
that contained a continuation coil.
The flow state of the continuation contact is the same as the preceding executed continuation coil. A
continuation contact has no associated variable.
Notes:
■ If the flow of logic does not execute a continuation coil before it executes a continuation contact,
the state of the continuation contact is no flow.
■ The state of the continuation contact is cleared (set to no flow) each time a block begins
execution.
■ The continuation coil and the continuation contact do not use parameters and do not have
associated variables.
■ You can have multiple rungs with continuation contacts after a single continuation coil.
■ You can have multiple rungs with continuation coils before one rung with a continuation contact.
