Hello. Can you help me?

TIMX instruction does not work for me. I'm using CJ1M-CPU11 with CX-One.
When I type TIMX 10 &50, CX does not accept it. So I was constarined to use the BCD timer, i.e. TIM 10 #50.
I don't like the BCD, I prefer the BIN and every my const and var is BIN (&).
I can't see any advantages of using the BCD. Why I've to store a value from 0 to 9999 when I can store 0-65535.

Thanx
 
Hello Boyko,
Have you set the PLC properties to BIN Timers and Counters?
Right click on the PLC in the project workspace and select 'properties' from the pop-up menu.
There, you'll find a checkbox - 'Execute Timer/Counter as Binary'.
Check it, and away you go...

Hope this helps.
