Whike i was looking into this I thought that you were limited to 10 sec total plus you could use mw instead of a db |

Hi, I have a problem . In attachment, you can see what's going on. When I set 4second in location db2.dbw8, as result I got value 8 second in location db2.dbw90. But if I change dbw8 location and value is 10 sec, in dbw10 I got the next value: 3min20sec instead 20second. Something is not correct. Zoran AttachmentAddition two S5Time data.pdf (483 Downloads) |

GrzegorzG is correct. Adding two S5 times directly is wrong method as it can give wrong value sometimes. This is because of the special format S5 time uses. The count is always from 0 to 999 in BCD and then the time base is 0.01s, 0.1s, 1s and 10s. Please check page 12-3 of the manualgiven below for better understanding. http://support.automation.siemens.com/WW/view/en/18653496 So the best methode is to convert and then do the addition as given by GrzegorzG |
