I'm having a little issue with totally understand what a few rungs are doing in a program I'm working with. The program is a factory program and it is for a new machine (compressor) that isn't up and running yet. We're still waiting for final inspections and main power. I was looking at the ladder to check out some timers and see what the factory had them set at and I stumbled upon the "alarm annunciator" part (control panel alarm lights). I'm not quite sure how the use of two latching alarm bits works to control the alarm indicator as shown.
The program is much longer, of course, but I've only included the pertinent rungs for simplicity sake. The rungs are in order from top to bottom as they appear in the program. Since the machine isn't online yet, I can't test it out to "see." I appreciate a little ladder logic Sudoku just as much as the next guy, but without professional training, I can't seem to get this one.
Maybe I've been staring at it too long and it is much simpler than I'm making it to be.
