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.
