Figure 113: Timer Object Block Diagram
Input Events / Destinations
The following signals are available in user programs and as Destinations on the Assignments view.
Timer.#.TimerEnable
The Timer Enable event is level sensitive (not edge only) and is used to enable the Timer object. If a timer is not Enabled, the
Output will never activate regardless of the state of the Input.
When the TimerEnable is deactivated, all output events associated with that Timer object will also deactivate and Elapsed
Time will be set to zero.
All timer types use the Enable even though it is not shown in the individual timing diagrams. See examples of how
TimerEnable affects timer functionality in Figure 114 and Figure 115 below.
