Example 5: Interlock control
The figure above is the circuit of interlock control. Y1 and Y2 will act according to the start
contact X1 and X2. Y1 and Y2 will act not at the same time, once one of them acts and the other
won't act. (This is called interlock.) Even if X1 and X2 are valid at the same time, Y1 and Y2
won't act at the same time due to up-to-down scan of ladder diagram. For this ladder diagram,
Y1 has higher priority than Y2.

Example 7: Oscillating Circuit
The period of oscillating circuit is ΔT+ΔT
Y1
The figure above is a very simple ladder step diagram. When starting to scan Y1 normally close
contact, Y1 normally close contact is close due to the coil Y1 is OFF. Then it will scan Y1 and the
coil Y1 will be ON and output 1. In the next scan period to scan normally close contact Y1, Y1
normally close contact will be open due to Y1 is ON. Finally, coil Y1 will be OFF. The result of
repeated scan, coil Y will output the vibrating pulse with cycle time ΔT (On) +ΔT (Off).

If add normally close contact Y2 into Y1 circuit to
be an input for Y1 to do AND function. (as shown in
the left side) Y1 is an input of Y2 and Y2 can stop
Y1 after acting. In this way, Y1 and Y2 can execute
in sequential.
