Two non sequential steps can share a timer with the same ID number. Also, it can be set with different set values
respectively.

Steps S10 and S11 are sequentially connected, the left side T0 is not allowed.
Steps S10 and S12 are not sequentially connected, the left side T0 is allowed.
The MC and MCR instructions cannot be used in the SFC.
The SET, RST and OUT instructions cannot be used to do the state transfer in the SFC.
The same step relay ID number cannot be used repeatedly in the SFC.

When designing a SFC, the ID numbers of used step relays do not need to follow through a specic sequence.

In the SFC, the S0~S9 are the main initial step relays. However, a general step relay can also be used as an initial
step relay, at the beginning of a SFC ow.

Avoid using the pulse of rising/falling edge in a SFC. If necessary, can transfer the edge pulse to an auxiliary relay M
in the ladder diagram rst.

For a selective or simultaneously parallel branch, the maximum limit is 8 branch ows.
If using the Ladder Master S to compose a SFC, one SFC diagram can have at most 32 columns.

If the transfer condition is ON, the
RESET is effected to the S30. Hence,
will not do status transfer (the S20 is
still ON).
