11... APPENDIX A: MASTER ICON REFERENCE

Count Rising / Falling Edges: The Up Counter increments its accumulated count when its input changes state. The User can use this option to specify whether Rising (False to True) or Falling (True to False) transitions (edges)are to be counted.

Output Count upon disable: Check this box to force an output of the accumulated Count at any time that the icon is disabled. If this box is not checked, upon receipt of a disable signal, the Counting function will be momentarily suspended until the icon is re-enabled and no in-process value will be output.

For example, if a Count is to be output when a one hour Update Pulse has been received but only 20 minutes have gone by and the icon is disabled, the 20 minute sample Count total will be output and the counting function will be suspended until re-enabled. Upon re-enable,counting will continue and after 40 more minutes, the hourly Count Total will be output (unless the following check box is checked)

Count Rising / Falling Edges: The Timed Counter increments its accumulated count when its input changes state. The User can use this option to specify whether Rising (False to True) or Falling (True to False) transitions (edges)are to be counted.

Units: Provides a text box for User entry of a units label that will be shown at the output from this icon. Conversion to other units can be performed within a Program Net by adding a Math Icon onto this icon’s output.

Output Name: Specify the label for the Output. This name will show directly under the Output terminal within the Program Net.
