PL7-1 Language
1.1
Presentation
PL7-1 is the name given to the Boolean or Instruction List language that can be
used to program the TSX 17-10 and TSX 17-20 micro-PLCs.
This language can transcribe both the most frequently used graphic systems of
representation :
. Ladder diagram,
. Grafcet.
Ladder diagram
The transcription of a Ladder diagram in PL7-1 language consists in assigning the
contacts to the inputs of the PLC, and the coils to the outputs or internal bits of the
PLC.

I/O Addressing
The address of an input or output is defined as follows :
. I for an input, or O for an output,
. the number of the module :
- 0 for the basic PLC,
- 1 for the 1st extension module,
- 2 for the 2nd extension module,
. a comma,
. the number of the I/O point (see the table below).
Examples :
. I0,04 signifies : Input N 4 of module 0 (basic module),
. O1,07 signifies : Output N 7 of module 1 (1st extension module).

Mono-task cycle
- The TSX 17-10 has a mono-task cycle only (no Fast task).
- The TSX 17-20 can be given a mono-task cycle by setting SY19 to 1.
The task is non-periodic and has a scan time of < 150 ms (watchdog).

PLC Scan Cycles (Contd)
Two-task cycle
The TSX 17-20 can be given a two-task cycle by setting SY19 to 0.
The two tasks are :
. The Master task (non-periodic, the same as the mono-task),
. The Fast task (non-periodic).
Purpose of the Fast task : The Fast task guarantees short response times for
short routines that recur frequently. The number of instructions in the Fast task
should be kept to the minimum.
Principle : The Fast task interrupts the Master task when one of the following
instructions is encountered L.., LN.., _*_.., NOP or EP, and when one of the
following events occurs :
. the physical change of state of one of the event-triggered inputs (configured as
such) I0,24 and/or I0,25,
. the fast timer C15 reaches its preset value.

Remarks :
Do not use Grafcet instructions, nor the instructions JMP and LAB in the
Fast task.
When the Fast task is :
- active, the input and output bytes configured in this task are processed by
both the Fast task and the Master task.
- inactive, the input and output bytes configured in this task are processed
by the Master task only.
Only one input byte (I0,00 to I0,07 or I0,08 to I0,15 or I0,16 to I0,21) and
one output byte (O0,00 to O0,07 or O0,08 to O0,11) of the basic PLC
module can be configured in the Fast task.
A change of state of the "event" inputs I0,24 or I0,25 that is generated by the
terminal or the program, and not by an outside event, will not initiate the
execution of the Fast task.

PL7-1 Language : Structure and Functions
2.1
Characteristics
Instructions
A PL7-1 language instruction occupies one memory address and is composed of :
Example :
A memory address
S 0004
An operation code
A
+ An operand
I0,03
A list of instructions is divided into 2 parts :

.

The number of test or action instructions is not limited.

Program memory
The number of lines (i.e. instructions) that can be used is limited by the size of the
memory, as follows :
Micro-PLC
8K Memory
24K Memory
TSX 17-10
TSX 17-20
925 (from S0000 to S0924)

925 (*)
2973 (*)
(*) If the Fast task is used, the number of lines of the Master task is reduced by the number
of lines of the Fast task.
Example : With an 8K memory :
Master task = from S0000 to S0918

Fast Task
= from F0000 to F0006
Program scan
The processor reads and executes the instructions in the ascending order of their
addresses, up to the instruction EP (end of program).
Program jump : JMPi and LABi
The execution of the operation code JMPi immediately jumps the program scan
to the line containing the operation code LABi and the part of the program between
JMPi and LABi is not executed. JMPi and LABi must have the same number ;
this number has no relation to the line number.
"IM" function
This function simplifies the logic operations A, AN, O, ON, XO between two series
of instructions.
Principle : Before the execution of each L or LN instruction, the logical result is
memorized in IM until the next L or LN instruction.

. A program jump over a timer, or the stopping of the PLC, does not halt the
running of a timer.
. In the ADJUST mode, the current value Ti,V is at 0 if the timer has timed
out, has not been started, or has been initialized by the operation code R.
. On a cold restart, the current value is reset to 0 and the preset value Ti,P
is the value that was defined in the CONFIGURATION mode (the adjustment value is lost).
2.3
Counter
The counter function permits the upcounting or downcounting of external or

internal events. The preset value can be modified by the TSX T317 terminal in the
ADJUST mode.

System bit SY 17
Since equality is not always the desired condition, the system positions system
bit SY17 as follows :
. SY 17 = 0 if the counter value constant K,
. SY 17 = 1 if the counter value < constant K.
Thus providing 4 additional functions (>, <, , ).
Example

ON SY 17
Counter C00 more than or equal to 123
L
O
C00 K00123
SY 17
Counter C00 less than or equal to 123
. The system bit SY17 can be used several times in the program for one or
more counters. It always affects the counter Ci immediately upstream of
the operand SY17.
. When the counter reaches its preset value (Ci,P) it is automatically reset
to 0000.
. On a cold restart, the current value is reset to 0000 and the preset value
(Ci,P) is the value that was defined in the CONFIGURATION mode (the
adjustment value is lost).

If more than 16 bits have to be shifted, several registers can be cascaded in the
program.
Example
Shift the register one place to the left every second.

Fast counter/timer (TSX 17-20 only)

The TSX 17-20 micro-PLC is equipped with a fast counter C15 which, depending
on the way it is configured, can be used as a fast counter or a fast timer. The preset
value is defined in the CONFIGURATION mode and can modified by the terminal
in the ADJUST mode, or by the program with the operation code S.
Characteristics
- Fast counter (configuration by default) :
The maximum frequency of the counter is 2 KHz. It has two physical inputs (a
counting input and a reset input) permitting the connection of 5VDC and 24VDC
sensors. Counting : 10 000 points.
- Fast timer :
In the fast timer, an internal time base of 0.555ms replaces the physical counting
input. A rising edge on the reset input resets the current value of the timer to 0.
Test and action operation codes
L C15K tests of the state of the counter in relation to constant K
LN C15K (from 0000 to 9999),
SY 17
see Section 2.3.
S C15K modification request of the the preset value K. This new value is
acquired after the counter has reached the preset value that it had
when the modification request was made.
R C15
resets the counter to 0 and resets the preset value to the value that
was defined in the ADJUST or CONFIGURATION modes.
System bit SY 15
When the fast counter C15 reaches its preset value :
. system bit SY15 is set to 1,
. the Fast task is executed if system bit SY19 has been reset to 0 in the Master
task,
. the counter is reset to 0.
Connecting the fast counter
The 9-pin D-type connector in the top left corner of the TSX 17-20 has two
independent, isolated inputs :
. Fast counting input :
0V = pin 1;
5V = pin 7;
24V = pin 6
. Reset input :
0V = pin 5;
5V = pin 8;
24V = pin 9
Remarks
16
. Resetting of the counter to 0 by the physical input resets the current value
only (the preset value is retained).
. By associating the fast counter with a step counter (in which each step is
loaded with a value K), a fast counter with multiple preselections can be
obtained.
. On a cold restart, the current value is reset to 0 and the preset value is the
value that was defined in the CONFIGURATION mode.
PL7-1 Language : Grafcet

EP
Pre-processing :
= a series of instuctions
Role
Processing of :
- mains break/return,
- failures,
- application operating modes :
. init : by system bit SY21,
. reset : by system bit SY22,
. prepositioning of the Grafcet by system
bits SY22 and SY23,
. freezing of the Grafcet by system bit SY 23,
- input logic
Sequential processing :
= a series of instructions
Role
- Sequential processing of the application :
steps and transitions and their associated
actions and conditions.
Post-processing :
= a series of instructions.
Role
The processing of :
- the commands from the Sequential processing section concerning the control of the
outputs,
- the output safety interlocks.
The scan cycle is defined in Section 1.5. Only the steps that are active (or to be
activated or deactivated) and their associated instructions are executed in the
Sequential processing section.
Reminder : Grafcet instructions must not be used in the Fast task.
Conditions and actions

The transition conditions associated with step i are written after the step
instructions - * - i or = * = i.
The actions associated with the steps can be written either :
. In the Sequential processing section, after the step instruction and before the
transition conditions, by using the instructions S and R (scanned when the step
is active).
. In the Post-processing section, after the instruction Xi (scanned on each cycle).
This solution is recommended in the case of outputs linked to safety interlocks.

Program utilities
4.1
Mains power break/return
Characteristics of mains power breaks

. < the autonomy of the power supply : normal execution of the program,
. > the autonomy of the power supply : processor de-energized, with :
- saving of the context (program, data, I/O) if the PLC is equipped with a backup battery,
- without a battery, the context is saved for a minimum of 1 hour.
Hot restart : the context is coherent (program and data)

Possible causes :
. mains return after a break of > autonomy of the power supply,
. system bit SY01 set to 1 by the terminal or the program.
Consequences :
. system bit SY01 set to 1,
. all outputs reset to 0 (*),
. unsaved internal bits (B128 to B255) reset to 0,
. saved internal bits (B000 to B127) and Grafcet steps retain their states, and
timers, counters, shift registers and step counters retain their values,
. the scan restarts from where it stopped but without updating of outputs at the end
of the cycle, the next cycle is executed normally (inputs, program, outputs) and
SY01 is reset to 0 by the system.
(*) with PLC software versions earlier than V1.2, all output states are saved.
Cold restart : loss of context (data or program)

Possible causes :
. back-up battery defective or absent,
. change of user program back-up cartridge,
. system bit SY00 set to 1 by the terminal or the program,
. initialization of the PLC by the terminal.
Consequences :
. system bit SY00 set to 1,
. all internal bits, I/O bits and current values of functions are reset to 0 (registers
at 0, step counters at step 0, etc.),
. loss of the adjustment values modified by the terminal and resetting to the values
defined in the Configuration mode,
. cancellation of forcings,
. acknowledgement of an I/O Fault,
. reinitialization of the Grafcet,
. the scan restarts at the start of the cycle (inputs, program, outputs) and system
bit SY00 is reset to 0 by the system.
Remark
The Fast task cannot be executed until system bits SY00 and SY01 have been
reset to 0, i.e. not until after the execution of the first complete cycle.
19
Program utilities
4.2
Initialization of the PLC

The PLC can be initialized by program by setting system bit SY00 to 1 which
corresponds to a cold restart (see Section 4.1). During a hot restart, it may be
necessary to initialize the PLC, the example below shows how this can be
programmed. The PLC can also be initialized by the terminal.
Example
4.3
L SY01
S SY00
If SY01 = 1 (hot restart) then set SY00 to 1 to initialize the PLC.

These two bits are reset to 0 by the system at the end of the next cycle.
Program and data back-up storage

The program and data are stored in the RAM memory of the PLC. This memory
has an autonomy of 1 hour. The autonomy of the RAM can be increased to 2 years
by installing a TSX 17 ACC1 lithium back-up battery (refer to the installation
manual).
For permanent back-up storage, the user program can also be transferred to a
TSX MC70 E38 or E324 EEPROM memory cartridge.
EEPROM memory module

Copying the program to an EEPROM memory cartridge is not mandatory, but is
recommended since it prevents the risk of alterations to the user program due to
mains breaks or battery defects.
On power up, the PLC compares the RAM and EEPROM programs. If they are
not identical, the program in the EEPROM is automatically transferred to the RAM
memory.
4.4
RUN/STOP input and SECU output

The input I0,00 and the output O0,00 of the basic PLC module can each be
configured either as normal I/O or for special functions :
Input I0,00
Can be set in the Configuration mode to either :
Normal :
Normal operation as for any other input,
RUN/STOP : State 1 = PLC running, program being executed,
State 0 = PLC stopped, program halted.
Output O0,00
Can be set in the Configuration mode to either :
Normal :
Normal operation as for any other output,
SECU :
State 1 = PLC running,
State 0 = PLC stopped or failed.
This output can be used in external safety circuits.
Remarks . I0,00 and O0,00 must be used in the program only for the function that was
selected in the CONFIGURATION mode.
. The RUN/STOP input has priority over a RUN/STOP command from the
terminal.
20
Program utilities
4.5
Diagnostic aids
The operands described below can be used in the program to facilitate troubleshooting of the PLC or the application.
System bits
SY10 = 0 : I/O module fault or configuration fault,
SY13 = 1 : Back-up battery absent or defective.
Fault bits Sx,j

Value of x : 0 : Basic PLC module,
1 : 1st extension module,
2 : 2nd extension module.
Sx,0 = 1 : I/O fault or exchange fault in module x.
Sx,1 = 1 : Sensor voltage fault in module x,
Sx,2 = 1 : Input circuit fault in module x,
Sx,3 = 1 : Short-circuit on the static outputs of module x.
Reminder :
System bit SY16 at 1 requests the reconnection every 10

seconds of the static outputs disconnected by overvoltage or
short-circuit.
Sx,4 = 1 : Internal power supply fault of the coils of the relay outputs of module x.
Remarks :
. State 1 of any of these fault bits causes :

. resetting to 0 of system bit SY10,
. illumination of the I/O fault light.
. If the I/O light stays on and SY10 stays at 0 after the fault has been
corrected, use the terminal to initialize the PLC.
Display of internal bits B240 to B255

The significance of the status lights on the front panel of the basic PLC varies
according to the state of system bit SY14 :
SY14 = 0 : MD light out
display of outputs O0,00 to O0,15 (or O0,00 to O0,07 for the TSX 1710 with 20 I/O),
SY14 = 1 : MD light on
display of internal bits B255 to B240 (or B255 to B248 for the TSX
17-10 with 20 I/O).

Program utilities
4.6
Application operating modes

The PL7-1 software enables the operating modes of the application to be
organized in three main groups :
. Checking,
. Operation or production,
. Stopping.
These different operating modes can be obtained by using the following possibilities of the Grafcet language :
.
.
.
.
Initialization of the Grafcet,

Resetting of the Grafcet,
Presetting of the Grafcet,
Freezing of the Grafcet.
Use of the Pre-processing section and the system bits facilitates control of the
application operating modes without complicating the program.
Structure of the Pre-processing section

The flowchart below shows the structure that should be given to the Preprocessing section, which is divided into three sub-assemblies as follows :
. Power up,

Grafcet system bits

The Grafcet system bits SY21, SY22 and SY23 must be used only in the Preprocessing section. Bits SY21 and SY22 are automatically reset to 0 by the
system and must be written by using operating code S only.
Initialization of the Grafcet, SY21
Causes :
. a hot restart (see Section 4.1),
. SY21 set to 1 by the program or the terminal.
Consequences :
. deactivation of all the active steps and activation of all the initial steps.
22
Program utilities
Application operating modes (Cont'd.)

Resetting to 0 of the Grafcet, SY22
Cause :
. SY22 set to 1 by the program or the terminal.
Consequences :
. deactivation of all the active steps,
. stopping of the scan of the Sequential processing section.
Presetting of the Grafcet, SY22 and SY23
Procedure :
. reset the Grafcet to 0 by setting SY22 to 1,
. preset the steps to be activated by S Xi,
. validate the presetting by setting SY23 to 1.
Freezing of the Grafcet
. in its initial state, by holding SY21 at 1 by the program,
. in an "empty" state, by holding SY22 at 1 by the program,
. in a predetermined state, by holding SY23 to 1.
4.7 Programming guidelines

Use of jump instructions
Jump instructions should be used with caution. Avoid upstream jumps and avoid
long loops in the program which could increase the scan time. Do not make jumps
from one task to another.
Programming of outputs
Each output bit or internal bit must be turned on or off only once in the program,
since only the last state that is scanned is taken into account when the outputs are
updated at the end of the scan cycle.
Field safety sensors

Sensors that are used in direct safety circuits must not be processed by the PLC,
but must be free to act directly on the corresponding actuators.
Power return programming

An automatic restart of the application after a mains power return could be highly
dangerous. Users are therefore strongly recommended to make the restarting of
the application after a mains power return conditional on a manual operation.

. The states of bits that have been forced have priority over the states that are
defined by the program.
. The states of output bits, internal bits and system bits that have been modified do
not have have priority over the states that are defined by the program.
. If a forced bit is present, the display of the status of the PLC, indicated by RUN or
STOP, is replaced by R.F or S.F.
. The forcing of output bits has no effect unless the PLC is running, or unless the
PLC is stopped and SY8 = 0. If the PLC is stopped and SY8 = 1, all the outputs

Presentation of the Mode
Purpose
The TEXT mode (which is selected by default) allows the TSX T317 to be used
as an operator dialogue terminal for the exchange of messages with the TSX 1720 (display of alphanumeric messages from the TSX 17-20 and entry of numeric
messages on the keyboard of the TSX T317).

Explanation
CNV impossible
Conversion of a 24K memory to 8K is impossible because

the program occupies more than 8K.
Tape Rec fault X
X = 0 audio signal
X = 1 checksum
X = 2 number of bytes
X = 3 comparison
X = 4 recognition (header)
EPROM fault
Fault in the EPROM memory of the terminal.
RAM fault
Fault in the RAM memory of the terminal.
Prog. mem. fail
Memory not initialized. Clear the memory.
Imposs. in RUN
Stop the PLC and repeat the operation.
Full memory !
The memory is full. If possible (with TSX 17-20 only) convert

the memory size from 8K to 24K.
Prog. protected
The program cannot be read because it has been protected

by a transfer in the "PRO" mode to or from an EEPROM
memory module (see Part 1, Section 5.7 "EEPROM Transfer
Function").
Not auth. -code?
Programming in RUN is not authorized. Stop the PLC and

enter code 7533 in the Terminal mode (see Part 1, Section
5.10 "Code Entry Function").
TSX refuses
The terminal request is refused by the PLC.

Example : If input I0,00 has been configured as a RUN/
STOP input and is in the STOP position, a RUN
request from the terminal will be refused by the
PLC.
No reply from TSX The terminal is not compatible with the PLC to which it is
