1ms timers on FX3S

6 posts in this topic

Hi, I've been trying to figure this out by my own for some time but now ask for help. I'm making a project that needs 8 timers that counts in milliseconds and don't really know how to use them all. In the FX3S manual I can read it have plenty of 1ms pulse timers. But I only manage too use the 4 that's retentive. I don't know how to use the other ones. I'm programming in GX Works 2 Structured ladder. Usually when i'm making a timer I use TIMER_100/10_FB_M but the 10 timer is disabled when programming for FX3S by some reason. Currently i'm using TIMER_CONT_FB_M but when I use more than 4 timers the program doesn't work properly. Please help me!

Hi, if I rememeber it correctly, the 1ms timer is called only by TIMER_M. TIMER_100/10_FB_M assign one of T0-T62 range, TIMER_CONT_FB_M assign one of T132-T137.

Hi thanks for your help! I have tried getting it to work but the timers won't count. As soon as EN gets high ENO gets high. It won't delay it at all. Am I doing something wrong? Check picture. I even tried too use OUT_T that I heard was "the new TIMER_M".

Hi, ENO status repeats EN status. Status of timer is denoted as TS (TS77, TS66).
