Hello experts,

In hardware configuration of a S7-1200 CPU, there's an option for capturing count  value of HSC. (Please check attachment). But there's a problem for using of that and that is no place for determining the memory area storage of the value in confoguration. I mean you can't define where the value must be record (like Memory area or DB and so on). Anyway the help of software is wrong! and it's the same with gate input.

thanks

Hello,

Here a link to manual:

SIMATIC S7 S7-1200 Programmable controller

See chapter 10.1

You can create a DB, with a variable of Datatype 'HSC_Count'

Then you will have a variable, that is named 'CapturedCount'

Best regards,
