Timer and Counter Instructions
Section 3-6
Description When the timer input is OFF, the timer specified by N is reset, i.e., the timer’s
Completion Flag is turned OFF.
When the timer input goes from OFF to ON, TIMU(541)/TIMUX(556) starts
decrementing the PV. If the set value is reached while the timer input is ON,
the timer’s Completion Flag will be turned ON (the timer times out).
The status of the timer’s Completion Flag will be maintained after the timer
times out. To restart the timer, the timer input must be turned OFF and then
ON again.
Read this timer’s Completion Flag only. The timer’s PV is used by the system,
so it cannot be read.
Flags
Precautions Timer numbers are shared with other timer instructions. If two timers share
the same timer number, but are not used simultaneously, a duplication error
will be generated when the program is checked, but the timers will operate
normally. Timers which share the same timer number will not operate properly
if they are used simultaneously.
The timer PV cannot be read.
The Completion Flag is updated only when TIMU(541)/TIMUX(556) is exe-
cuted. The Completion Flag can thus be delayed by up to one cycle time from
the actual set value.
The timer will not operate properly when the cycle time exceeds 100 ms.
Timers will be reset or paused in the following cases. (When a timer is reset,
its PV is reset to the SV and its Completion Flag is turned OFF.)

Error Flag ER ON if timer number N is indirectly addressed through an
Index Register but the address in the Index Register is not
the address of a timer’s Completion Flag or PV.
ON if in BCD mode and S does not contain BCD data.
OFF in all other cases.
