Shift Change to Reset a Counter

2 posts in this topic

I have a project in Logix5000 that I am stumped on. I need to track Time Of Day to reset a counter at the start of each shift. I am working with a CompactLogix L24ER. I have done this with Seimens Step7, using their TOD block, but I don't see anything like it in 5000.I tried to understand the GSV block but it was too confusing. Are there any examples I could draw from?

Confusing or not the GSV command is the method of retrieving the system's information including the date/time.

The command just requires you (for the date/time information) to have a DINT array, at least 7 units long, ready to receive the information.
