The diagram shows the connection of sensors 51
and 52 to terminals for digital inputs and the
connection of the signal lamp to a terminal for
digital output. The 55-90U detects whether
voltage is present at its inputs (indicated by signal
state "1") orwhethervoltage is absent(indicated
by signal state "0"). However, the S5-9OU cannot
determine whether an input is assigned to a
normally open contact or to a normally closed
contact. You must indicate this assignment in
your program. You must also indicate the
conditions underwhich the lamp at output Q 32.5
is switched on.
FiEure 3-2. Terminal Conn€dion Diagram (piogrammable Control)
The result ofthis AND operation (result of logic operation, RLO) is assigned ln the
program to output Q 32.5. ln thestatement list, the equalssign (=) infrontof
Q 32.5 indicates this assignment. lnthe ladderdiagram, the-(f symbol atthe
end of the series circuit indicates this assignment.
To enter your statement list in the S5-90U, you use a SIMATIC@ programmer or an
l8M or IBM-compatible personal computer and proceed as lollows:
1. Store the statement I ist in organization block'l (OB 1). For the correct
proced u re, see the ma nual for you r prog ra m mer or the progra m mi ng
manual for your personal computer. (See also section 3.3.)
2. Transfer your program from your programmer or personal computer to the

3. lf you want to test your program, use the si mulator (see subsection 1.3.2).

The operation tells the S5-90U what it should do with the operand. The
parameter indicates the add ress o{ an operand. The programmer inserts the
relativeaddressofthestatementautomatically- Thisaddressisinsignificant for
the format of the statement. Appendix D lists all operations and operands.
3.3 Creating a Linear Program
For processing simple automation tasks, you can program individual operations in
one block. Forthe 55-90U, this is organization block 1 (OB1).
The 55-90U processes OB1 cyclically. The controller processes each statement.
When it reaches the block end statement (BE), it returns to the first statement
and continues processing- This is called cyclical programming (see Figure 3-5).
The S5-90U works with the {ollowing block types:
r Organization blocks (OBs) - OBs manage the control program. Theyform
the interface between the operating system and the control program.
. Program blocks (PBs) - PBs arrange the control program according to
functional or technical aspects.
. Function blocks (FBs) - FBs are special blocks for programming frequently
recurring or especially complex program parts (e'g., arithmetic functions)-
They have an extended set of operations (e.g., Jump operations within a
block, see Appendix D).
r Data blocks (DBs) - DBs store data needed to process a control program'
Actual values, limiting values, and text are examples of data.

3.5 ProgrammingExamples

You can carry out many operations with the S5-90U. This section discusses the
following operations and provides an example for each one:

the S5-90U (see the ma nual for your prog rammer or persona I co mputer).
Structured programming is also available. Structured programming handles

To make programming easierfor you, data block 1 (DB1) is integrated into the
S5-90U with preset values (default parameters). After performing an overall
reset, you can load this default DB1 from the 55-90U into your programmer or
personal computer and display it on the screen (see Figure 4-1).

lf
you have backed up your program on this memory submodule, your

be saved even ifthe powerfails while there is no battery in your 55_90U.

5.1 Loading Your program into the S5-90U

You can transfer your program to the memory of the S5-90U as follows:
