Timer and Counter Instructions Section 5-16
Changes in execution conditions, the Completion Flag, and the PV are illus-
trated below. PV line height is meant only to indicate changes in the PV.
Precautions Program execution will continue even if a non-BCD SV is used, but the SV will
not be correct.
Flags ER: SV is not in BCD.
Indirectly addressed EM/DM word is non-existent.
(Content of *EM/*DM word is not BCD, or the EM/DM area boundary
has been exceeded.)
Example In the following example, CNT is used to create extended timers by counting
SR area clock pulse bits.
CNT 001 counts the number of times the 1-second clock pulse bit (SR 25502)
goes from OFF to ON. Here again, IR 00000 is used to control the times when
CNT is operating.
Because in this example the SV for CNT 001 is 700, the Completion Flag for
CNT 002 turns ON when 1 second x 700 times, or 11 minutes and 40 seconds
have expired. This would result in IR 01602 being turned ON.
!Caution The shorter clock pulses will not necessarily produce accurate timers
because their short ON times might not be read accurately during longer
cycles. In particular, the 0.02-second and 0.1-second clock pulses should not
be used to create timers with CNT instructions.
