Up Down Counter (UDC)
This Up/Down Counter counts up on each off to on
transition of the Up input and counts down on each
off to on transition of the Down input. The counter is
reset to 0 when the Reset input is on. The count range
is 0 to 99999999. The count input not being used
must be off in order for the active count input to
function.
Instruction Specification
Counter Reference
(CTaaa): Specifies the counter
number.
Preset Value
(Bbbb): Constant value (K) or two
consecutive V-memory locations. (Pointer (P) for
DL240, DL250-1 and DL260).
Current Values
: Current count is a double word value accessed by referencing the associated
V or CT memory locations. The V-memory location is the counter lo 1000. For
example, the counter current value for CT5 resides in V-memory location V1005 and V1006.
Discrete Status Bit:
The discrete status bit is accessed by referencing the associated CT
memory location. It will be on if the value is equal to or greater than the preset value. For
example, the discrete status bit for Counter 2 would be CT2.
NOTE:
The UDC uses two consecutive V-memory locations for the 8-digit value, therefore two consecutive
counter locations. For example, if UDC CT1 is used, the next available counter number is CT3.
NOTE:
A V-memory preset is required only if the ladder program or an OIT must be used to change the
preset.
NOTE: *
Both the Counter discrete status bits and the current value are accessed with the same data
reference with the HPP.
Direct
SOFT uses separate references, such as “CT2” for discrete status bit for
Counter CT2, and “CTA2” for the current value of Counter CT2.

Caution: The UDC uses two
V-memory locations for the 8-digit
current value. This means that the
UDC uses two consecutive
counter locations. If UDC CT1 is
used in the program, the next
available counter is CT3.
