Software Notes on programmable pulses, timers and coun- ters These are more or less special forms of the commands de- scribed earlier. For a more detailed description refer to chapter “6 Examples“. Ш Programmable pulse When a wipe pulse has been set (=, =N...) and the corre- sponding code line is skipped, the output signal will be re- tained until the line is processed again. Ш Remanence The “R” operand supplements listed in the table are optio- nal parameters. Add them if you wish a timer or counter to be remanent (when you stop or reset the controller, the cur- rent (time) count will be stored and retrieved when you re- start the controller).
Ш Timers Once started, timers run regardless of whether the corre- sponding code line is being processed or not. 64
