RSLogix 5000 TON Timer Time Base

studentplc1 · Apr 14, 2010

Hey,

Can someone tell me what the default time base is for TON timers in RSLogix 5000? In the TON timer I don't see the option anywhere to edit it. I just see Timer, Preset, Accum. What is the time base?

Thanks

0.001 seconds

And for future reference see link below for the instruction set manual.

Chapter 3 for the above question.

As Brownhat said, it's 0.001 seconds. It is not selectable. Coming from a PLC-5 or SLC500 world, that may at first seem like a limitation until you realize it's 32 bit. That gives you:

over 2,000,000 seconds
over 35,000 minutes
over 596 hours
over 24 days

Hey,

In RSLOGIX 5000 Time base is milliseconds. Time bass Preset 1000 = 1 seconds

thanks (kannanmkm)
please is there any simple way to store data in RSlogix 5000 for example i have analogue input data to PLC and i want to save these data with time to copy these data for example to another program

If it were me I would use a UDT array with the time and data you want to store. Then use GSV instruction to get the time, and a simple MOV to write the analog data into the UDT. I can think of several ways to accomplish what you want to do, so just find a way that works for you. I'm sure the the folks here that really know what they are doing could come up with a hundred more ways of doing it, but this is what I would do. This link will help you with the GSV instruction for the time.
