PLC Timer Definitions and Functions

The document discusses timers for three different PLC brands - Omron, Mitsubishi, and Keyence. All timers are activated when their execution condition goes on and reset when it goes off. For Omron and Keyence timers, the timer counts down from the set value, while Mitsubishi timers count up. When the timer reaches zero or the set value, depending on count direction, the completion flag turns on to indicate timer expiration. Timers are reset by their execution condition turning off.

Definition Function Timer for PLC Programming

1. Timer for PLC Omron : TIM - Countdown Timer

Purpose: A timer is activated when its execution condition goes ON and is reset (to SV) when the execution condition goes OFF. Once activated, TIM measures in units of 0.1 second from the SV. If the execution condition remains ON long enough for TIM to time down to zero, the Completion Flag for the TC number used will turn ON and will remain ON until TIM is reset (that is, until its execution condition goes OFF). Ranges: N : TC Number --> 000 - 511 SV : Set value (word, BCD) -->IO, AR, DM, HR, # 2. Timer for PLC Mitsubishi : T - CountUp Timer

Purpose: A timer is activated when its execution condition goes ON and is reset (to Zero) when the execution condition goes OFF. Once activated, T measures in units of 0.1 second from the SV. If the execution condition remains ON long enough for T to time Up to SV, the Completion Flag for the T number used will turn ON and will remain ON until T is reset ( Actual Time =0 ) (that is, until its execution condition goes OFF). Ranges: N: T Number 000 - 199 SV: Set value --> k0 - k9999 3. Timer for PLC Keyence : T or TMR - Countdown Timer

Purpose: A timer is activated when its execution condition goes ON and is reset (to SV) when the execution condition goes OFF. Once activated, T measures in units of 100ms or 0.1 second from the SV. If the execution condition remains ON long enough for T to time down to zero, the Completion Flag for the TC number used will turn ON and will remain ON until T is reset (that is, until its execution condition goes OFF). Ranges: n : TC Number --> 000 - 249 S : Set value --> #0 to 65535
