Equivalent of a Timer Up function from AD's DMD in GX Works3

2 posts in this topic

I simply want to create a function that measures how long the machine has been running/functioning. I see the option to create the OUT T function, but that allows me at max to count up to 9999. Do I have to create some registers to continuously store this data? 
Can I not just have it count up freely? 

I have a couple other functions I need to run off of this further on, but this is the foremost issue. Any ideas? Thanks so much in advance.

You did not specify with what PLC are you working... The HOURS instruction is as a tool.
