6. Function blocks
6.1 Manufacturer function blocks
The function block and its parameters
Function block inputs
Description Note
(bit)
EN
1: Activates the function block.
RE
Reset
1: Resets the actual counter value back to
zero.
D_
Count direction
1: down counting
0: up counting
Integer value range:
0…596 523
SE
When there is a rising edge at SE, the value at
SV is applied as the operating hours value and
appears at QV
(DWord)
I1
The value at I1 is the reference value. If this
reference value is greater than the operating
hours value, output Q1 will be set.
SV
When there is a rising edge at SE, the value at
SV is applied as the operating hours value
