Click PLC Pulse Timer

Click PLC Pulse Timer A pulse timer is often used in PLC programming. To create a pulse timer, we use a self-resetting timer at the time base rate that we want. Our example has a normally closed timer contact as the condition for the timer itself. This will create a self-resetting timer. We have this set for 3000 milliseconds (3 seconds). This timer output T1 will be on for one scan at the end of each time duration, creating a pulse. Output is set after the pulse from the timer. This output is then timed for 1000 milliseconds (1 second) before resetting the output. This sets the output on for 1 second and off for 2 seconds. Programming and examples of the Click and Click PLUS PLC series can be found at this URL: https://accautomation.ca/series/click-plc/ https://accautomation.ca/click-plc-timers-and-counters/ There are several reasons why we are using the Click and Click PLUS PLCs. Here are just a few. - Investment is low for the hardware, and the software is free - Standalone PLC with built-in I/O - Communication ability - Ethernet Port, RS232, RS485 - support for protocols such as Modbus RTU, Modbus TCP, etc. Ability to expand the system with various modules, including RTD and Thermocouple inputs directly.
