6.1.2 Counter function blocks
6.1.2.1 C - Counter relay
General
easyE4 base devices provide 32 counter relays, C01 through
C32. Each counter relay can count up and down and functions
as a double word counter.
Operating principle
You can enter upper and lower threshold values as reference values. The cor-
responding function block outputs will switch based on the determined actual value.
You can set a starting value using input SV.
The counter relays C01…C32 are cycle time dependent.
The following applies to the EDP programming language:
The time for a single count pulse must be longer than twice the
cycle time. For shorter pulses, use the CH high-speed counter
function block.
NOTICE
Avoid unforeseeable switching states.
Switch C, CF, CH, CI function blocks only at one single point in the pro-
gram.
Otherwise, previous counts will be overwritten.
