For what it is worth - revision 3. It compensate for the overflow / roll-over effect. This is not solving my project issue, but it might solve yours. - Dan

DAN, YOU'RE THE BEST! Your code is running perfectly! I think I was writing to the wrong variable... --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As I could see in your code above, you want a "0" value result (85.8997266578954 - 85.8997266578954 = 0).
And this is working as well. My "RunningTime program" - which I always use to measure and preset running hours - is running for over 5 hours now without any problem. Attached V4. Best regards, |

Hello Alex. Your compliment is very encouraging. Thank you. Not wanting to sour the situation but I do not agree with the change you made. I suggest you set in the hardware configuration that the PLC cycle is running at a minimum period. Then you can test versions 3 and 4 against each other. I suggest: To try and explain - begin with what RUNTIME is doing:
Where ET < 0 and delta2 is the time "distance" to the overflow event:
If the scan cycle is short (1ms and less), the fold-over event does not make too much difference. But with higher cycle times the difference is bigger. Added: Have a look at my other post to which I linked to. It has a STOPWATCH that works like a TONR time accumulator. - WEB LINK - Perhaps you will want to use it. Note that I assumed the #OVERFLOW := 85.9s. I enjoyed our discussion. Hope we do so again. Bye. |
