Counting Forms

  • When the values are linear and ring-counted:
    • In the case that the currently-counted value is greater than the maximum ring-counted value, it is preset as the value less than or equal to the maximum ring-counted value to ring-count when being linear-counted.
    • It is to be preset as the value greater than or equal to the minimum ring-counted value to ring count when being linear-counted down.
    • If the value is not preset, it will be linear-counted.
      • Maximum ring-counted value > Minimum ring-counted value

Linear Counting

HSC Basic Functions Linear Counting in MapleLogic
  • If linear counting is selected, input pulses are counted in the range from -2,147,483,648 ~ 2,147,483,647 (232).
  • This is used in the combination of the presetting and coincidence output functions.

Overflow Error

  • This occurs when the value is linear-counted down past -2,147,483,648 or up past 2,147,483,647.
  • If overflow occurs, the data registers for detecting overflow in buffer memory 02H (2) or 22H (33) will be set, and the counting will stop.
    • Even though pulse inputs pulse continuously, the counted value is fixed at -2,147,483,648 or -2,147,483,647.
  • If the value is preset, the overflow error will be cleared, and the data register for detecting overflow in buffer memory will be 0.

Ring Counting

  • If ring counting is selected, input pulses are counted repeatedly between the minimum ring-counted value, 16H (22), 17H (23), or 36H (54), 37H (55), and the maximum ring-counted value, 18H (24), 19H (25) or 38H (56), 39H (57).
    • The overflow for ring counting does not occur.
    • Ring counting is used in combination with the presetting and coincidence output functions.

Counting Up

Counting Down

HSC Basic Functions Ring Counting Counting Down in MapleLogic

Range of Ring Counting

  • The range of ring-counted pulses is from the minimum value, 16H (22), 17H (23), or 36H (54), 37H (55), to the maximum value, 18H (24), 19H (25) or 38H (56), 39H (57).

Option 1: Minimum Ring-Counted Value ≤ Current Value ≤ Maximum Ring-Counted Value

  • Counting Up:
    • In the case that the currently-counted value reaches the maximum ring-counted value, the minimum ring-counted value is automatically stored in the current value.
  • Counting Down:
    • In the case that the currently-counted value reaches the minimum ring-counted value, when the next counting-down pulse pulses, the value, maximum ring-counted value – 1, is stored in the current value.
  • While input pulses are being counted up or down, the maximum ring-counted value is not stored in the currently-counted value of buffer memory.
HSC Basic Functions Ring Counting Range of Ring Counting 1 in MapleLogic

Option 2: Current Value ≤ Minimum Ring-Counted Value, Current Value ≥ Maximum Ring-Counted Value

  • Counting Up:
    • In the case that the currently-counted value reaches the minimum ring-counted value, when the next counting pulse pulses, the value, maximum ring-counted value + 1, is stored in the current value.
  • Counting Down:
    • In the case that the currently-counted value reaches the maximum ring-counted value, the minimum ring-counted value is automatically stored in the current value.
  • While input pulses are being counted up or down, the maximum ring-counted value is not stored in the currently-counted value of buffer memory.

Option 3: Maximum Ring-Counted Value = Minimum Ring-Counted Value

  • Any value in the range -2,147,483,648 ~ 2,147,483,647 (232) can be ring-counted regardless of the current value.

Coincidence Output

  • The coincidence output is used to output a coincidence signal when the currently-counted value is compared, being coincided with a set value.
  • The coincidence output can be set for 2 points on each channel.
  • To output a coincidence signal, enable the coincidence output.
    • Channel 1: Yn.2
    • Channel 2: Yn.A
HSC Basic Functions Coincidence Output in MapleLogic
NumberDescription
1The set coincidence output value is stored in the set coincidence comparison value 1 in the range -2,147,483,648 ~ 2,147,483,647 (232).
Channel 1: 12H (18), 13H (19)
Channel 2: 32H (50), 33H (51)
2When the currently-counted value is equal to the set coincidence output value, the counted value less is OFF and the counted value coincident is ON.
3If the requesting to reset coincidence signal 1 or requesting to reset coincidence signal 2 is ON, the counted value coincident is reset.
If the counted value coincident is kept ON, the next coincidence signal is not output.
4If the counted value is greater than the set coincidence output value, the counted value greater is ON.

Presetting

  • Presetting is used to write the currently-counted value in as an integer value as a preset value.
    • There are two presetting methods:
      • Sequence program
      • Outer control signal

Presetting by Sequence Program

  • If Yn.1* or *Yn.9 is turned ON by the sequence program, the currently-counted value is preset.
HSC Basic Functions Presetting by Sequence Program in MapleLogic
NumberDescription
1The number is stored in the preset value of the buffer memory in the range -2,147,483,648 ~ 2,147,483,647 (232).
Channel 1: 10H (16), 11H (17)
Channel 2: 31H (49), 32H (50)
2At the rising edge of the requesting to preset (Yn.1 or Yn.9), from OFF to ON, the currently-counted value of the buffer memory is set up as the preset value of the buffer memory.
The value is preset irrelevantly to the enable counting (Yn.4 or Yn.C).

Presetting by Outer Control Signal

  • If a voltage is input into a presetting input terminal, the currently-counted value is preset.
HSC Basic Functions Presetting by Outer Control Signal in MapleLogic
NumberDescription
1The number is stored in the preset value of the buffer memory in the range -2,147,483,648 ~ 2,147,483,647 (232).
Channel 1: 10H (16), 11H (17)
Channel 2: 31H (49), 32H (50)
2At the rising edge of the voltage input into an outer input terminal, from OFF to ON, the currently-counted value of buffer memory is set up as the preset value of buffer memory.
The value is preset irrelevantly to the enable counting (Yn.4 or Yn.C).

IMPORTANT NOTE:

  • If the detect request for outer presetting flag (Xn.4 or Xn.B) is ON, even though the voltage input into an outer preset terminal or requesting to preset (Yn.1 or Yn.9) is set, the currently-counted value is not preset.
    • In this case, to preset, reset detecting outer presetting (Yn.5 or Yn.D) is to be set and the detecting request for outer presetting flag is to be OFF.
  • Even though the outer presetting input is set while the requesting to reset detecting outer presetting (Yn.5 or Yn.D) is ON, a value is not preset.
