Hi,
Is it possible to manipulate the standard SFB4-TON timer from Siemens in a VAT table? I need to do some qualification tests on a system with a few large IEC timers. With the default timers it is possible to overwrite the actual time with another value but it seems that this is not possible with the SFB 4 timers. The preset time is 72 hours and I would like to test the program by changing the expired time close to the preset time so I only have to wait a few seconds.
Temporary software changes to test the result of the timers are not acceptable, I may only change values through the VAT table. The preset time is also written in the software with an constant value, so I can’t change that either.
