CDP (Dual-Pulse Reversible Counter)
The dual-pulse reversible counter CDP has up and down pulse inputs, so that three inputs are required. The circuit for a
dual-pulse reversible counter must be programmed in the following order: preset input, up-pulse input, down-pulse input,
the CDP instruction, and a counter number C0 through C99, followed by a counter preset value from 0 to 65535.
The preset value can be designated using a decimal constant or a data register. When a data register is used, the data of the
data register becomes the preset value.

Q1
Program List
• The same counter number cannot be pro-
grammed more than once.
• The preset input must be turned on initially so
that the current value returns to the preset
value.
• The preset input must be turned off before
counting may begin.
• When the up pulse and down pulses are on
simultaneously, no pulse is counted.
• The counter output is on only when the cur-
rent value is 0.
• After the current value reaches 0 (counting
down), it changes to 65535 on the next count
down.
• After the current value reaches 65535 (count-
ing up), it changes to 0 on the next count up.
• When power is off, the counter’s current
value is held, and can also be designated as
“clear” type counters using the Function Area
Settings (see page 5-4).
• Counter preset and current values can be
changed using WindLDR without download-
ing the entire program to the CPU again.
From the WindLDR menu bar, select Online >
M
onitor, then select Online > Point Write.
To change a counter preset value, specify the
counter number with a capital C and a new
preset value. To change a counter current
value, specify the counter number with a
small c and a new current value while the
counter preset input is off.
• When the preset or current value is changed
during counter operation, the change
becomes effective immediately.
• For the data movement when changing, con-
firming, and clearing preset values, see page
7-13. Preset values can also be changed and
changed preset values can be confirmed using
the HMI module. See pages 5-35 and 5-36.

of counter instructions, see page 29-22.
