Loop counter function
The loop counter function is provided for rapid command processing. The loop counter func-
tion only requires two PLC cycles to execute a command repeatedly (flow chart see [
237]).
This increments the loop counter to execute a command repeatedly. At least four PLC cycles
are required in conventional command processing. In order to execute a command repeatedly
with conventional command processing, a command has to be reset and then set again. The
loop counter function is provided for special commands. If the command was successfully ex-
ecuted, the command code is output in the response data.
4.4.6
Configurable digital channels – functions
The device is provided with eight digital channels, which can be configured as inputs or out-
puts according to the application requirements. Up to eight 3-wire PNP sensors or eight PNP
DC actuators with a maximum output current of 2 A can be connected per input or output.
4.4.7
Turck Field Logic Controller (FLC)
The device supports logic processing with the Turck Field Logic Controller (FLC) function. This
enables the device to perform small to medium complexity control tasks in order to relieve the
processing load on the central controller. The FLCs can be programmed in the ARGEE engineer-
ing environment.
The ARGEE-FLC programming software can be downloaded free of charge from
The Zip archive SW_ARGEE_Environment_Vx.x.zip also contains the documentation for the pro-
gramming environment in addition to the software.
