Hello,


I am new to PLC(R3Xi) and proficy machine edition.I will really appreciate a help about the following issue.
I built a UDFB using and it contained a timer TMR_sec which is supposed to output a clock signal(periodic on/off state).
However, multiple instances of the UDFB are called in the logic, therefore my program didn't work properly.
I knew that TMR Timers don't work properly in UDFB when many instances of the UDFB are used, and it should be replaced by TON,TP,TOF timers.
I am wondering how I can made a clock signal(for example turn on for 1 sec and then off for 1 sec repeatedly).
Please find attached the logic for the clock signal(PB)obtained with the TMR_SEC timer.
Thank you
