The Integral Real-Time Clock S5-100U
12.4 Structure of the Clock Data Area
You need only to change the default values in DB1 to program the clock in DB1. See section 12.2.
During start-up, the DB1 interpreter writes all information into the system data area.
TIP: Do not attempt to set parameters in the system data, or to access directly from the user
program unless you have extensive knowledge of the system.
You must store the location of the clock data area in system data 8 and 9.
Data exchange between DB1 or the control program and the integral real-time clock is always
through the clock data area.
•
The integral real-time clock stores current time, date, and operating hours counter values in the
clock data area (flag area, data block, input area, or output area).
• DB1 and the control program store the settings for prompt times and operating hours counters in
the same data area.
The control program can only read from or write to the clock data area. The control program can
never access the clock directly. Figure 12-6 illustrates the relationship between DB1 or the control
program, the clock data area, and the integral real-time clock.
