User Clocks Relay Flags

User Clock Relay Flags (F010)

The user clock flags, F010, allow users to configure and cycle custom clock signals using the DUTY instruction.
These flags are used for user-defined time-based operations.

F010.0 - User Clock 0

Description

The user clock 0 flag is ON (1) and OFF (0) based on a user-defined value during RUN mode.

Use Case

  • Allows for custom timing in parallel operations.
  • Useful for managing time-sensitive processes.
  • Suitable for creating multi-clock systems in a single PLC.
  • Useful for asynchronous timing of processes.
  • Useful for timing individual subsystems or tasks.
  • Enables precise control over time-based operations.

Clock Setup


The DUTY instruction initializes the user clock 0 flag, F10.0, to be ON (1) for 10 scans and OFF (0) for 10 scans.
