Hi all!
Am quite new to Allen Bradley PLC programming and currently working on the automation of a pumping station. The project requires 2 pumps to be working on a 24 hour basis during 7 days which amounts up to 168 hours = 604800s which is far beyond the 32767 seconds of the AB TON.
Can I use a timer with a preset of 3600 and a time base 1.0 and then using the done bit of the timer to set up a counter with a preset of 168 to be able to achieve 604800s?
P.S I'm using RSLogix 500 to program a MicroLogix 1200
