Objectives On completion of this lesson you will be able to: Describe the use of SFC. Describe the sequential rules. Use certain sequence constructs. Use online functions. General The Sequential Function Chart (SFC) programming language allows the user to describe the sequential behavior of the control program graphically. This concept enables all control actions for a process to be described in one compound sequence structure even if it involves several parallel action chains. Furthermore, sequences can be hierarchical, that is action chains can be grouped to give a clear high level presentation of the process control unit. A sequence is a unit with a complete sequence surrounded by an unconditional loop; the first step is reactivated when the sequence is finished. A sequence can be divided into separate types of structures. There are two types of structures, sequence selection and simultaneous sequence. It is possible to structure the sequence view into several hierarchical levels with the subsequence function. The SFC Editor The SFC programming editor is divided into four panes, the declaration pane, code pane, structure pane, and the message pane. The declaration pane, the code pane (see also below), the message pane, the toolbar and commands in the menu bar, concerning the code are the same as in the other language program editors. SFC Toolbar There is a special toolbar in the Sequ
