TP

Name :Generate pulses

Symbol:TP

Illustrate:

    Using the Generate pulse command, you can set the output Q to a preset period of time. This command is started when the result of the logic operation of the input IN changes from "0" to "1" (the rising edge of the signal). When the command is activated, the preset time PT starts the timer. Regardless of how the state of the subsequent input signal changes, the output Q is set by the PT for a period of time. When the PT duration is being timed, the signal status of the output Q will not be affected even if a new signal rising edge is detected.
    The current time value at the ET output can be scanned. This timer value starts at T#0s and ends when the duration value PT is reached. If the PT time runs out and the signal status of the input IN is "0", the ET output is reset.

Parameter:

Parameter	Statement	Type	Description
IN	Input	BOOL	Initiation input
PT	Input	TIME	The duration of the pulse, the value of the PT parameter must be positive
Q	Output	BOOL	Pulse output
ET	Output	TIME	The current time value

Example:

LD:

ST:

TP_inst1(IN := TagStart,
PT := TagPresetTime,
Q => TagStatus,
ET => TagElepsedTime);

Interpretation:

Parameter	operand	value
IN	TagStart	Signal transitions“0”=>“1”
PT	TagPresetTime	T#10s
Q	TagStatus	TRUE
ET	TagElapsedTime	T#0s => T#10s

    When the signal status of the TagStart operand changes from 0 to 1, the time preset by the PT parameter starts and the TagStatus operand is set to 1. The current-time value is stored in the TagElapsedTime operand. When the timer ends, the signal status of the operand "TagStatus" is reset to "0".
