Importing the Status Output
Changing the timing of the status output
The timing of status output can be selected from the [Latching] which links to judgment and [One-Shot]
which outputs for a certain time. For details on settings, refer to “Output Settings” (Page 6-27).

In case of [Latching], updates the output by linking with judgment.
In case of [One-Shot], outputs in a set amount of time after the set delay time is passed.
When the program number is switched or the external master image is registered, the status output turns
OFF before each process is completed.
Cancelling One-Shot output
To use the One-Shot output function, the following condition needs to be met.
Trigger input interval (Trigger interval) > One-Shot ON Time
If the above is not met, the following One-Shot output that occurs during the One-Shot outputting is
cancelled and is not output.

This is an example of what happens when the trigger input interval is shorter than the One-Shot ON Time.
(2) To perform the One-Shot output and output the status result of Trigger 1, the previous One-Shot output
is completed, so that outputting can be performed normally.
(3) To perform One-Shot output and output the status result of Trigger 2, the One-Shot output of Trigger 1
is output. Therefore, the output status of Trigger 2 will be cancelled and it will not be output.
If the BUSY time is not constant, meet the following condition to use it. The system might be affected by
a uctuating BUSY time.
BUSY time + Trigger input interval (Trigger interval) > BUSY time + One-Shot ON Time
