Te, Ce Timer/Counter Elapsed Value Register - Panasonic FP7 Series Command Reference Manual

2.6.10 TE, CE Timer/counter elapsed value register

■
How the elapsed value area (TE, CE) works
● While a timer or counter is operating, the elapsed value is stored in the elapsed value area
(TE/CE) with the same number as the timer or counter.
● When the value of the elapsed value area (TE/CE) reaches zero, the timer or counter contact
with the same number turns ON.
● The elapsed value area (TE/CE) is a 32-bit memory area which stores a decimal number
from 0 to 4,294,967,295.
■
Using the elapsed value area (TE, CE)
● The elapsed value of a timer or counter in operation can be changed to prolong or shorten
the operation.
● The values in the elapsed value area can be overwritten by user programs such as data
transfer instructions.
● Reading and writing of values can also be performed with the programming tool.
■
Precautions for programming
● Timer/counter settings for FP7 series can be specified using unsigned constants (U
constants).
● The elapsed value area (TE, CE) occupies a 32-bit area.
