2.5 Introduction of Devices Constructing PLC
Many relays, timers, and counters are built into an FX3G/FX3U/FX3UC PLC, with many NO (normally open) contacts
and NC (normally closed) contacts.
These contacts and coils are connected to make a sequence circuit.
A PLC is also equipped with data registers (D) and extension data registers (R) functioning as memory devices to
store numeric data values.
