    Timer On Delay (TON) : Instruction

    Uploaded by

    Agil Dwy Cahyo
    The TON instruction is a non-retentive timer that accumulates time when enabled. It accumulates time in milliseconds until the accumulated time is greater than or equal to the preset time, or it is disabled. The timer structure contains enable, timing, done, preset, and accumulated values. The timer runs by subtracting the last scan time from the current time and adding it to the accumulated time each scan.

    Timer On Delay (TON)

    The TON instruction is a non-retentive timer that accumulates time when the instruction is enabled (rung-condition-in is
    true).

    Operand Type Format Description


    Timer TIMER tag timer structure
    Preset DINT immediate how long to delay (accumulate time)
    Accum DINT immediate total msec the timer has counted
    initial value is typically 0

    TIMER Structure

    Mnemonic Data Description


    Type
    .EN BOOL The enable bit indicates the TON instruction is enabled.
    .TT BOOL The timing bit indicates that a timing operation is in process
    .DN BOOL The done bit indicates that .ACC  .PRE.
    .PRE DINT The preset value specifies the value (1 msec units) which the
    accumulated value must reach before the instruction sets the .DN bit.
    .ACC DINT The accumulated value specifies the number of milliseconds that have
    elapsed since the TON instruction was enabled.

    Description

    The TON instruction accumulates time until:

     the TON instruction is disabled

     the .ACC  .PRE

    The time base is always 1 msec. For example, for a 2 second timer, enter 2000 for the .PRE value.
    When the TON instruction is disabled, the .ACC value is cleared.

    How a Timer Runs

    A timer runs by subtracting the time of its last scan from the current time:
    ACC = ACC + (current_time - last_time_scanned)

    After it updates the ACC, the timer sets last_time_scanned = current_time. This gets the timer ready for the next scan.
    Important: Be sure to scan the timer at least every 69 minutes while it runs. Otherwise, the ACC value won’t be correct.
    The last_time_scanned value has a range of up to 69 minutes. The timer’s calculation rolls over if you don’t scan the timer
    within 69 minutes. The ACC value won’t be correct if this happens.
    While a timer runs, scan it within 69 minutes if you put it in a:

     subroutine

     section of code that is between JMP and LBL instructions

     sequential function chart (SFC)

     event or periodic task

     state routine of a phase

    Arithmetic Status Flags

    Not affected

    Fault Conditions

    A major fault will occur if: Fault Fault code
