Counter to slow

4 posts in this topic

I have set the counter to count pulses from the internal clock M8011. This is suposed to be a 100 hz clock pulse. The problem is that the counter isn't even counting 10 pulses a second. What to do to make the count faster? Can the reason be that I'm not using a PLC, but only simulating the program. Edited by henriks

Running on a real CPU, or Simulating?

A standard counter only works during the PLC scan. In my experience, the simulator uses a fixed 100ms scan time. How many pulses per second are you getting?

they do not operate the faster timers in the simulator
