Posted 3 Jul 2017 Hi all, I have created a program using the binary counter and timer instructions and everything works fine (yay!), but I am not entirely sure if there is a major difference between using Binary mode or BCD Mode on the PLC. Does it just come down to personal preference or is there an advantage to using a particular mode over the other? Also, does the operating mode affect anything besides counter/timer? The option in CX-Programmer seems to indicate it doesn't. Cheers, Jay Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 3 Jul 2017 The advantage to Binary mode is being able to use a much larger setpoint (#FFFF=65535) over (#9999=9999), 1 person likes this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
