9.2.11 Counter (C)
(1) Definition
A counter is a device which counts the number of input condition leading edges in
sequence programs.
When the count value matches the set value, the counter counts up and its contact
turns ON.
The counter is of an up-counting type.
(2) Counter types
There are two counter types: counters which count the number of input condition
start-ups (leading edges) in sequence programs, and counters which count the
number of interrupt factor occurrences.
(3) Count processing
(a) When OUT C instruction is executed
When and OUT C instruction is executed, the following counter processing
occurs: coil ON/OFF, current value update (count value + 1), and contact ON/OFF.
Counter current value update and contact ON/OFF processing are not performed
at END processing.
