Studio 5000 Main Task Execution Guide

In Studio 5000, a Main Task can contain multiple Programs, each with a MainRoutine that runs continuously in a specified order. Subroutines must be explicitly called within a MainRoutine using the JSR instruction and do not run independently. The execution cycle repeats after all MainRoutines have completed their run.

Studio 5000: Main Task with Multiple Programs & Routines

In Studio 5000, a Main Task can contain multiple Programs. Each Program has a MainRoutine and

may include several Subroutines.

If all Programs are part of the Main Task:

- Each Program's MainRoutine runs continuously.

- They run one after the other, in the order they appear in the task.

- Once all have run, the loop repeats immediately.

Example with 4 Programs in Main Task:

1. Program_A -> MainRoutine -> (calls Subroutine_A1, A2... if included)

2. Program_B -> MainRoutine -> (calls Subroutine_B1, B2... if included)

3. Program_C -> MainRoutine -> (calls Subroutine_C1, C2... if included)

4. Program_D -> MainRoutine -> (calls Subroutine_D1, D2... if included)

Execution Cycle:

[Program_A MainRoutine] -> [Program_B MainRoutine] -> [Program_C MainRoutine] -> [Program_D

MainRoutine] -> REPEAT

Subroutines:

- Subroutines do NOT run on their own.

- They must be explicitly called using the JSR (Jump to SubRoutine) instruction inside a

MainRoutine.

- If called, they execute every time the MainRoutine runs.


Summary Table:

| Component | Runs Repeatedly | Triggered Automatically | Notes |

|------------------|------------------|--------------------------|--------------------------------------|

| Program MainRoutine | Yes | Yes | Runs in sequence, inside Main Task |

| Subroutine | If called | No | Must be called using JSR |

Think of it like chefs (Programs) working in shifts (Tasks) in a kitchen:

Each chef follows their main recipe (MainRoutine) and may use helper steps (Subroutines).

They take turns in order and repeat the process non-stop.
