Hi,

In OB1 there is no Prev Cycle time anymore.
Is there a solution to have something like this ?
Or do I have to substract the previous clock read from the current to achieve this ?

Thanks,
Combo
 
There is a better way. Check out the RT_INFO instruction. It can be called with a number of different modes, to give you the cycle time for OB1 or the execution time of any other OB, as well as the time spent on communications processing.

Look under Extended Instructions-> Diagnostics
