I want to see the overall time my radiators been "on" and use the Hour counter block and the OT to display the time, but it say 0h 0min and is not changing. The "En" input is connected to the output of a PWM module which pulses frequently with some seconds on/off depending on the heat needed. As I can not see seconds in this OT I wonder if it will not register pulses shorter than a specific time? Background I use a PT100 to detect actual value and a potentiometer to set desired value (Analog trigger block and PWM block ).This function works perfect and the heating is doing ok. My problem now is only the time counter block

Only when the number of detected reaches a second minute (60 seconds), in the one minute counter is added and stored. That means: If the input of the operating hours counter is less than 1 minute is activated, it is not detected for storing. If you want to have this, one must add from each V / R counter an hour meter itself together.
