OR
The OR Link operator links the current statement in Parallel with all previous
statements in an equation (see Figure 8-8).
[ ] [ ] [FIRE] [3-01]
[OR] [ ] [FIRE] [3-02]
Figure 8-8
In Figure 8-8, IF the condition of 3-01 is Fire OR the condition of 3-02 is Fire,
then the INPUT SIDE is true. Another way to look at this equation is shown in
Figure 8-9. In order to cross from the INPUT SIDE of the equation to the
OUTPUT SIDE, one of the statements (3-01 or 3-02) must be true.
