RS Logix 500 Making multiple ladder function

On the left hand side of the AB program I have on my screen, there is Ladder 2-7. Hows are these individual ladder sections created in the program. Does the jump routine have something to do with this? Pardon my ignoranants. Dbonniwell

You are correct. The jump routine tells the program to go to the next certain ladder (3-7). Ladder 2 is your main ladder.

Ladder File number two is created for you by default.

Creating a new ladder file: In the project tree (left pane) right click on "Program Files" and click "New...". You'll be prompted for a file number, name, and description. This cannot be done online.

Executing the new file: In your main routine use a JSR with the file number to Jump to the SubRoutine. At the end of the subroutine, program flow will return to the instruction following the JSR.
