6.5.5 Limitation in number of instructions
Limitation in the number of instructions and limitation in simultaneous driving
Some applied instructions can be used only up to the specified number of times.
*1. Total number of times that the FNC53 (HSCS), FNC54 (HSCR) and FNC55 (HSZ) instructions are used
When using above instructions beyond the allowable number of times of use
For instructions whose operands allow indexing, device numbers and numeric values in such instructions can be
changed by index registers.
By indexing, when driving multiple instances simultaneously is not required, such instruction can be used as if they
were used beyond the allowable number of times.
→ Refer to "Subsection 5.7.3. Indexing example in instruction with limited number of use".
Limitation in simultaneous instances of instructions
Some applied instructions can be programmed two or more times, but the number of simultaneous instances is
limited.
Even in instructions not shown below, if two or more instructions are driven at the same time for a same I/O number, it
is regarded as double outputs. In some combinations of instructions, the operation may be disrupted, or the
instructions cannot be executed.
For details, refer to the caution described in each instruction page.
For combinations of instructions, refer to "6.4 Mutual relationship among program flow control instructions".
1. Positioning instructions
Do not drive FNC 57 (PLSY), FNC 58 (PWM), FNC 59 (PLSR), FNC150 (DSZR), FNC151 (DVIT), FNC156 (ZRN),
FNC157 (PLSV), FNC158 (DRVI) and FNC159 (DRVA) instructions at the same time for the same output number.
2. High speed processing instructions
•FX3U/FX3UC PLC
In FNC 53 (HSCS), FNC 54 (HSCR) and FNC 55 (HSZ) instructions (including FNC280 (HSCT) instruction), make
sure that up to 32 instructions are driven at the same time. [FNC280 (HSCT) instruction can be used only once.]
Note that "FNC280 (HSCT) instruction", "table high speed comparison mode of FNC 55 (HSZ) instruction)" and
"frequency control mode of FNC 55 (HSZ) instruction" can each only be used once.
•FX
3G PLC
The FNC53 (HSCS), FNC54 (HSCR) and FNC55 (HSZ) instructions can be driven up to 6 times in total at the same
time.
3. External device communication instructions
• In FNC 80 (RS) and FNC 87 (RS2) instructions, do not drive two or more instructions at the same time for the same
port.
• It is impossible to combine and use FNC 80 (RS), FNC 87 (RS2), FNC270 (IVCK), FNC271 (IVDR), FNC272
(IVRD), FNC273 (IVWR) and FNC274 (IVBWR) instructions for the same port.
• In FNC270 (IVCK), FNC271 (IVDR), FNC272 (IVRD), FNC273 (IVWR), FNC274 (IVBWR), FNC300 (FLCRT),
FNC301 (FLDEL), FNC302 (FLWR), FNC303 (FLRD), FNC304 (FLCMD) and FNC305 (FLSTRD) instructions, two
or more instructions can be driven at the same time for the same port.
