Chopper, Here is how I have done it and it has worked fine for me. I did it in LAD because there wasn't BCD conversion in SCL when I started. The first page there is another ladder for the seconds. You just have to rin this block in OB1 to get Date and Time from there. Dont worry about the time snyc inputs. This block also had a time sync where it would update the date time from another device that could write to it. So all you need in the #OB1_Date_Time for an input and your outputs.

Please find the solution I used in the attached project file. This converts system time to integers and is done in ladder. Hope this helps someone. Thanks to all for the help. Kris AttachmentS7_tim~1.zip (371 Downloads) |
