Bit 10: UA - Update accumulation value.If the accumulation value is over the maximum range then the overflow (OV) bit will be true.Įach counter address is made of a 3-word element.A CTU accumulation is reset by the RES instruction.When this transition happens the accumulated value is incremented by one count. The CTU is an instruction that counts false to true transition.Increments the accumulated value at each false to true transition and retains the accumulated value when the instruction goes false or when power cycle occurs.RES - Reset CTU Count UP Symbol Definition.The following is a list of counter instructions in SLC 500: Counters are used to index, increment or decrement values. Counters are very essential in ladder logic programming.

Introduce MCR zone in automatic bottle filling system.In this section we will cover the count up count down and reset instruction. Let’s study the working of MCR using example, Master Control Reset No need to give any condition for closing MCR zone. When the rung goes “true” all rungs are scanned according to their normal rung conditions. When the rung goes “false” all non-retentive outputs within the controlled zone are disabled. Two MCR instruction are used to perform the function, One is to start the MCR zone with input condition as must and another one is to end the limit area.Īn input condition like Emergency switch is programmed on the rung of the first MCR to control rung logic continuity. Using this instruction, we can disable all the outputs at the same when MCR condition goes off. The MCR zone ends with the rung that has the second MCR instruction only. It begins with the rung that has the first MCR instruction. The zone being controlled is known as the MCR zone control. The paired instructions cause the PLC to enable or inhibit a zone of ladder logic program outputs according the application logic.
