Precautions Section 2-2
Note Instructions that specify program areas cannot be used for programs in other
tasks. Refer to
4-2-2 Task Instruction Limitations for details.
Subroutines Place all the subroutines together just before the END(001) instruction in all
programs but after programming other than subroutines. (Therefore, a subrou-
tine cannot be placed in a step ladder, block program, FOR - NEXT, or JMP0 -
JME0 section.) If a program other than a subroutine program is placed after a
subroutine program (SBN to RET), that program will not be executed.
Instructions Not Available
in Subroutines
The following instructions cannot be placed in a subroutine.
Note Block Program Sections
A subroutine can include a block program section. If, however, the block pro-
gram is in WAIT status when execution returns from the subroutine to the
main program, the block program section will remain in WAIT status the next
time it is called.
