In the following timer example, when input I0.3 turns on, the
I0.3 contact closes, and timer T37 begins timing. T37 has a time
base of 100 ms (0.1 seconds). The preset time (PT) value has
been set to 150. Because the resolution of the timer is set to
100 ms, a preset value of 150 is equal to 15 seconds (150 x 100
ms). Therefore, 15 seconds after the I0.3 contact closes, timer
bit T37 becomes a logic 1, the T37 contact closes, and output
coil Q0.1 and its associated output point turn on.
If the switch opens before 15 seconds has elapsed, the
accumulate time resets to 0. Because this type of timer does
not retain its accumulated time when its input (IN) goes to logic
0, it is said to be non-retentive.
