Mitsubishi — 4.3 How does a Step Ladder Instruction Work?

4 Step Ladder Instructions 7. Restrictions on Using Some Instructions: The program of every step is the same as a general ladder diagram, in which you can use all kinds of series/parallel circuits or instructions. However, there are restrictions on some of the instructions. Basic instructions applicable in a step  DO NOT use MC/MCR instruction in the step.  DO NOT use STL instruction in a general subroutine or interruption subroutine.  You can still use CJ instruction in STL instruction, but this will make the actions more complicated. We do not recommend you do so.  The position of MPS/MRD/MPP instruction: Ladder diagram: Instruction code: STL Sn Explanation:

MPS/MRD/MPP instruction cannot LD X0 LD X0 be used directly on the new bus. Y1 S S n X1 X0 MPS MPS You have to execute LD or LDI X2 AND X1 instruction first before applying BUS MRD X3 M0 OUT Y1 MPS/MRD/MPP.
