Click the Configuration tab.
• Select the individual boxes for each
input point to enable Timestamp
Capture for that point.
• Unselect the individual boxes for each
input point to disable Timestamp
Capture for that point.
You can also use these boxes to enable
or disable all points simultaneously.

Use Timestamp Capture

Timestamp Capture causes the module to timestamp specific input transitions
(Off to On and On to Off). However, keep the following in mind when using
this feature:
Typically, Timestamp Latching is enabled. The configuration of this feature
determines whether the module timestamps only the first transition on an
input until the timestamp is acknowledged, or every transition on an input
while overwriting timestamps that have not yet been acknowledged.
If Timestamp Capture is enabled, the module timestamps only the enabled
transitions (OFF to ON and ON to OFF) for each input.
Whenever an input transition is timestamped as a valid transition, the module
sends updated input data for all inputs to the controller at the next RPI and at
every subsequent RPI.
Use the Configuration tab in Studio 5000 Logix Designer software to set
Timestamp Capture, as shown in the example below.

Operational Modes

The 1732E-IB8M8SOER module operates in FIFO and Per Point modes:
FIFO – Each channel provides buffering of the timestamped input data
for every input transition. There are 256 timestamp buffers for each of
the 8 input channels. Each buffer can contain a single Off to On or On to
Off event.
Per Point Mode – The module produces timestamps for up to 2 input
transitions per input, one for OFF to ON transitions and another for ON
to OFF transitions; these timestamps can occur simultaneously on
separate inputs.
