(2) 100ms retentive timers
1) A 100ms retentive timer is designed to time the ON period of the timer coil.
When its coil turns on, the timer starts timing the present value and maintains
the present value and contact ON/OFF state if the coil turns off.
When the coil turns on again, the timer resumes timing from the maintained
present value.
2) Use the RST T instruction to clear the present value and turn off the contact.

3.9.6 Timer processing method and accuracy
(1) Timer processing method
The coil of the timer is turned on/off at execution of the OUT T instruction, and
the timer's present value is updated and its contact turned on/off at execution of
the END instruction.
1) When the coil of the timer turns on, the present value of that timer is updated
after execution of the END instruction, and when the timer times out, its contact
turns on.
(a) When the coil of the 10ms or 100ms timer turns off, the present value of
that timer is reset to 0 and the contact is also turned off after execution of
the END instruction.
(b) If its coil turns off, the 100ms retentive timer maintains the prevent value
and contact ON/OFF state.
2) When the timer is reset by the RST instruction, the present value of the timer is
reset to 0 and the contact turns off too at execution of the RST T instruction.
