Operation status of hardware counter/software counter
*1. Cleared when the PLC mode switches from STOP to RUN.
5.5.5 [Function switching] switching of logic of external reset input signal
The external reset input for the counters C241 to C245, C247 to C250 and C252 to C255 normally resets the
counters when it is turned ON. If the logic is inverted by the following program, the counters are reset by
turning the external reset input to OFF.
Cautions in inverting the logic of the external reset input signal
Although C253 is a hardware counter, it is switched to a software counter by inverting the logic of the external
reset input signal.
