When forming a FlexLogic™ equation, the sequence in the linear array of parameters must follow these general rules:
1. Operands must precede the operator which uses the operands as inputs.
2. Operators have only one output. The output of an operator must be used to create a virtual output if it is to be used as
an input to two or more operators.
3. Assigning the output of an operator to a virtual output terminates the equation.
4. A timer operator (for example, "TIMER 1") or virtual output assignment (for example, " = Virt Op 1") may only be used
once. If this rule is broken, a syntax error will be declared.
Each equation is evaluated in the order in which the parameters have been entered.
FlexLogic™ provides latches which by definition have a memory action, remaining in the set state after the
set input has been asserted. However, they are volatile; that is, they reset on the re-application of control
NOTE
power.
When making changes to settings, all FlexLogic™ equations are re-compiled whenever any new setting
value is entered, so all latches are automatically reset. If it is necessary to re-initialize FlexLogic™ during
testing, for example, it is suggested to power the unit down and then back up.

NOTES
A 'one shot' refers to a single input gate
that generates a pulse in response to an
edge on the input. The output from a 'one
shot' is True (positive) for only one pass
through the FlexLogic™ equation. There is
a maximum of 64 'one shots'.

The parameter preceding LATCH(S,R) is
the reset input. The parameter preceding
the reset input is the set input.
The timer is started by the preceding
parameter. The output of the timer is
TIMER #.
The virtual output is set by the preceding
parameter
