Timer Accuracy
Timer accuracy refers to the length of time between the moment a timer instruction
is enabled and the moment the timed interval is complete.
Timing accuracy is –0.01 to +
0 seconds, with a program scan of up to 2.5 seconds.
The 1-second timer maintains accuracy with a program scan of up to 1.5 seconds. If
your programs can exceed 1.5 or 2.5 seconds, repeat the timer instruction rung so
that the rung is scanned within these limits.
Note Timing could be inaccurate if Jump (JMP), Label (LBL), Jump to Subroutine (JSR),
or Subr
outine (SBR) instructions skip over the rung containing a timer instruction
while the timer is timing. If the skip duration is within 2.5 seconds, no time will be
lost; if the skip duration exceeds 2.5 seconds, an undetectable timing err
or occurs.
When using subr
outines, a timer must be executed at least every 2.5 seconds to
pr
event a timing err
or.
