Example
In the above example, the DI instruction disables the interrupt. Then the EI instruction enables
the interrupt again. As a result, the rung 2 instructions can be executed without interruption
between each instructions.
Note
• Refer to the DI instruction (FUN 141).
• If an interrupt factor is occurred during the interrupt disabled state, the interrupt is kept waiting
and it will be executed just after the EI instruction is executed.
• The EI instruction can be used only in the main program.
