AEI602.55 TO 56 1
 Objectives

On Completion of this topic you will be

able to know…

• Logical Instructions

• Program Control Instructions

AEI602.55 TO 56 2
 Logical Instructions

• Logical instructions are output instructions.

• They read the values in certain source words

and based on the condition specified; specify a
value in a distance word

• Logical instructions can be used when need to

make certain decisions based on one or more
factors.

 Logical Instructions…

• Similarly many other digital devices use PLC

logical gates for making decisions.

• These logical gates are specified by using

certain instructions in the ladder logic program.

AEI602.55 TO 56 4
 Logical Instructions…

Allen Bradley PLCs supports the following four

logical instructions:

• AND
• OR
• NOT
• XOR

 OR Instruction

• The OR instruction performs an OR operation.

EXAMPLE:
• Consider the instruction displayed in figure

 OR instruction…

• In this example ,The rung condition is True of bit

08 of the i/p word 10 is 1.

• If the rung condition is true ,then the processor

performs an OR operation on D2 :4 and D5;7

• These two addresses are OR ed and the result

is stored in the destination address, D8;7 .

 XOR Instruction

• The XOR instruction performs an exclusive OR

operation. The below figure displays the block format of
the XOR instruction

 XOR Instruction…

This instruction reads the values in the bits of 2

source words.
Example:
Consider the instruction displayed in below figure
XOR
1:08/13 XOR
Source A D8: 6
Source B D9: 7
Destination D11: 4

Fig: XOR instruction

AEI602.55 TO 56 11
 XOR Instruction…

• In this example, the rung condition is True if bit 13 of the

input word 8 is 1.

• If the rung condition is True, then the processor performs

an XOR operation on D8: 6 & D9: 7.

• These 2 addresses are XORed & the result is stored in

the destination address, D11: 4.

AEI602.55 TO 56 12
 NOT Instruction…

The not instruction performs an NOT operation. The

block format of the NOT instruction is displayed in figure

AEI602.55 TO 56 14
 NOT Instruction…

• In this example the rung condition is true if bit 08

of the I/P word 10 is 1.

• If the rung condition is true then the processor

performs an NOT operation D6: 5 and D9: 3.

• These two addresses are oared and the result is

stored in the destination Address D8: 7.

AEI602.55 TO 56 15
 Program Control Instructions

• Program control instructions control & change

the flow of a ladder program.

• These instructions can be categorized into the

following classes:
• Master control instructions
• Jumping instructions
• Sub routine instructions
