Special auxiliary relays
For efficiently creating step ladder programs, it is necessary to use some special auxiliary relays. The table below
shows major ones.
The special auxiliary relays shown below are the same as those available in SFC programs.

Block
A step ladder program is created as ladder circuits in the
same way as relay ladder. Accordingly, different from SFC
programs, it is not necessary to divide blocks for relay ladder
parts and SFC parts.
When there are ladder blocks and SFC blocks, put a RET
instruction at the end of each step ladder program.
A PLC starts the step ladder processing by a STL instruction,
and returns to the relay ladder processing from the step
ladder processing by a RET instruction.
However, when consecutively programming a step ladder in
a different flow (when there is no relay ladder before the step
ladder in the different flow), a RET instruction between flows
can be omitted, and a RET instruction can be programmed
only at the end of the last flow.
This relay is normally ON while the PLC is in the RUN mode.
Use this relay as the program input condition requiring the normally driven status or for indicating the PLC
operation status.
This relay turns ON and remains ON only momentarily when the PLC mode is changed from STOP to
RUN.
Use this relay for the initial setting of a program or for setting the initial state relay.
When this relay is set to ON, transfer of the ON status is disabled among all state relays.
Because programs in state relays are operating even in the transfer disabled status, output coils do not
turn OFF automatically.
This relay automatically turns ON when any of the state relays S0 to S899 or S1000 to S4095 turn ON.
Use this relay to prevent simultaneous startup of another flow or as a process ON/OFF flag.
When this relay is driven, the device number of a state relay in the ON status having the smallest device
number among S0 to S899 and S1000 to S4095 is stored to D8040, and the state relay number in the ON
status having the next smallest device number is stored to D8041. In this way, up to eight state relays in
the ON status are stored up to D8047.
•
In the FX-PCS/WIN(-E), FX-30P, FX-20P(-E), and FX-10P(-E), when this relay is driven, the state
relays in the ON status are automatically read and displayed.
For details, refer to the appropriate peripheral equipment manual.
•
In the SFC monitor in GX Developer, the automatic scroll monitoring function is valid even if this relay is
not driven.
