Skip/End Coil Pair
The Skip/End coil pair can be used to cause one or more outputs in the program to stay
in their current state (1 or 0), regardless of the state of any inputs or other conditional logic to
those outputs. The rungs with the outputs to be controlled must be located between the
Skip coil and its paired End coil in the program.
In the example below, the Skip and End coil control the states of outputs O17 and O18.
While the Skip coil receives power flow from its conditional logic (in the example, it is
contact I1), all output coils within the Skip/End pair hold their last states.
Programming Software Instructions
If you are using the programming software, refer to the instructions on page 4-11.

This is a Skip to END operation. When
input I1 is 0, the Skip command is not
performed.
When input I1 is 1, all outputs till END
are on hold, and are not affected by input
conditions.
