Management of
timer addresses
January 2012
The MANUALplus 620 references the timers and counters via symbolic
names. The CfgPlcTimer configuration object is configured in the
configuration editor for this:
Parameter MP_run (103503):
Name of the process marker (if the attribute is missing then the key is the
name of the marker)
Parameter MP_start (103504):
Name of the start marker (timer to NR48 and counter)
Parameter MP_gate (103505):
Name of the gate marker (only counter)
The PLC compiler of the MANUALplus 620 can manage timer addresses itself
(as with B/W/D and markers). The #pragma range pragma instruction must be
entered in the source code for this.
This pragma instruction also has the following effects:
Global/static memory is reserved in rising order
Support of two ranges each for /bn and /mn areas
Compiler range /sn for strings
Syntax:
(Instruction for range reservation of the timers and counters. The range must
be between 48 and 999 in each case.)
