22.3.2 Timing Diagrams

 

· By writing a timing diagram, the sequence of steps in a program can be obvious.

 

· The general steps to this method are,

  1. 1. Understand the process
  2. 2. Identify the outputs that are time dependant
  3. 3. For each step assign a timer
  4. 4. Write the ladder logic to turn the outputs on/off as time progresses.

 

· Consider the problem below.
