How to Use the Sequence Table Block Appendix B
Step Numbers
Always-executed Step (Step 00)
Step 00 is always executed. When making step settings in the CX-Process Tool, all rules are set to step 00 by
default. Always set step 00.
Up to 64 steps (step numbers 01 to 64) can be used, including step 00. The step numbers do not have to be
consecutive (step numbers can be skipped), but they must be used in ascending order.
Steps Executed when Sequence Table Starts
At the start of sequential processing, step 00 and the lowest-numbered step (between 01 and 64) will be exe-
cuted. Just one of the steps between 01 and 64 will be executed. Two of these steps (with step numbers 01 to
64) cannot be executed simultaneously.
Actual Timing of Step Execution
When processing moves to the next step, that step is actually executed in the next operation cycle.
