TON
The TON instruction outputs TRUE when the set time elapses after the timer starts.
* T#0ms to T#106751d_23h_47m_16s_854.775807ms
The TON instruction outputs TRUE when the set time elapses after the timer starts. Set the time in
nanoseconds (ns). The timing accuracy is 100 ns. The timer starts when timer input In changes to
TRUE. Elapsed time ET is incremented as time elapses. When ET reaches set time PT, timer output Q
changes to TRUE. ET is not incremented after that. The timer is reset when In changes to FALSE. ET
changes to 0 and Q changes to FALSE.
If the timer is started and then In changes to FALSE before ET reaches PT, the timer is reset.
