They can be easily converted to LAD or FBD in any binary codes even if in micro controllers.check attachment for LAD equivalent. [code]//SET PRIOR AN #RESET A( O #START O #MEMORY ) = #MEMORY //RESET PRIOR O #START O( AN #STOP A #MEMORY ) =#MEMORT[/code] regards Attachment flip.jpg (1135 Downloads)

You also quite rightly determined that XOR is onlyavailable for Byte/Word or DWord types ifLadderis used (the same applies for the "normal' Step 7 too by the way). While you could manually program a Ladder bit based XOR, the good news isthat you have a bit XOR element available in FBD which should help implementing your toggle logic in the 1200. Attached is an example screendump of it and I hope this helps. Attachment FBD Toggle logic (Tia Portal V10.5).jpg (1287 Downloads)

Thanks for your help, I never used the FBD... only STL or sometimes if it's easyer to understand LADDER..., It's quite special to have some functions in FBD and not in LAD... but.. thanks to you I have my issue... Thanks all Frantz

You can add interlock to force toggled bit reset when for example run conditions are not met.
