Thank you. That really helps me visualize the operation. While I haven't done this in a Do-more yet I have programmed table look-ups to execute one step each scan before. The look-up was taking place while other operations - which did not need the results of the look-up - were executing. A result was found and ready by the time the operation needed them.
An output is a PLC's way of getting its inputs to change.
