SEQ Sequencer Function Block 
Description 
The SEQ label stands for Sequencer. 
 
 
 
This block is part of the 
Fast Logic categories. 
Function 
The HC900 controller supports up to 4 Sequencer function blocks, greatly enhancing configuration of 
sequence operations.  
Each sequencer supports up to 16 digital outputs that may be either on or off in each of 50 states e.g. 
PURGE, FILL, HEAT, etc, per block  The sequencer may have up to 64 sequential steps that activate 
within the states of the process.  
Steps of the sequencer may be configured to advance based on time, on digital event (2 per step), or a 
manual advance.  A separate jog function is also provided.  
The function can also configure an analog output on a step basis. The operational sequence for the steps is 
retained in a separate sequence file in the memory of the controller that may be selected on-demand 
through a user interface or via a recipe.   
Up to 20 sequences may be stored.  
Inputs 
ENA 
  = ON - block executes the programmed sequence  
    (Not connected, always enabled) 
     OFF - block holds its last output states and step time 
NSEQ  = Sequence Number. See ATTENTION below. 
NSTEP  = Starting Step Number. See ATTENTION below. 
^SET  = Pulse input to load NSEQ and NSTEP numbers. See ATTENTION below. 
^JOG  = Pulse input to jog to step number
