12.1.2.3 - State-Transition Equations
plc states - 12.25
A state diagram may be converted to equations by writing an equation for each state and each transition. A sample set of equations is seen in Figure 12.27 for the traffic light example of Figure 12.8. Each state and transition needs to be assigned a unique variable name. (Note: It is a good idea to note these on the diagram) These are then used to write the equations for the diagram. The transition equations are written by looking at the each state, and then determining which transitions will end that state. For example, if ST1 is true, and crosswalk button S1 is pushed, and S2 is not, then transition T1 will be true. The state equations are similar to the state equations in the previous State Equation method, except they now only refer to the transitions. Recall, the basic form of these equations is that the state will be on if it is already on, or it has been turned on by a transition. The state will be turned off if an exiting transition occurs. In this example the first scan was given it’s own transition, but it could have also been put into the equation for T4.
defined state and transition variables:
ST1 = state 1 - green NS
ST2 = state 2 - yellow NS
ST3 = state 3 - green EW
ST4 = state 4 - yellow EW
state and transition equations:
T4 = ST4 TON2 ( ST4, 4)
T1 = ST1 S1 S2
T2 = ST2 TON1 ( ST2, 4)
T3 = ST3 S1 S2
T5 = FS
Figure 12.27 State-Transition Equations
T1 = transition from ST1 to ST2
T2 = transition from ST2 to ST3
T3 = transition from ST3 to ST4
T4 = transition from ST4 to ST1
T5 = transition to ST1 for first scan
ST1 = ( ST1 + T4 + T5) T1
ST2 = ( ST2 + T1) T2
ST3 = ( ST3 + T2) T3
ST4 = ( ST4 + T3) T4
These equations can be converted directly to the ladder logic in Figure 12.28, Figure 12.29 and Figure 12.30. It is very important that the transition equations all occur before the state equations. By updating the transition equations first and then updating the state equations the problem of state variable values changing is negated - recall this problem was discussed in the State Equations section.

Figure 12.30 Ladder Logic for the State-Transition Equations
The problem of prioritization also occurs with the State-Transition equations. Equations were written for the State Diagram in Figure 12.31. The problem will occur if transitions A and C occur simultaneously. In the example transition T2 is given a higher priority, and if it is true, then the transition T3 will be suppressed when calculating STC. In this example the transitions have been considered in the state update equations, but they can also be used in the transition equations.
