Increment Simulation Timer Ticks
Clicking the
[Increment Simulation Timer Ticks]
button
allows you to multiply the active Timer Ticks setting by a
factor of (n+1) where n = the number of times you click the
button. This only effects the next Scan cycle.
For example, consider a Timer On Function Block. If you
have the Timer Ticks set at 10 and click the
[Increment
Simulation Timer Ticks]
button twice (n=2) then, in the
next Scan cycle the timer will increment by 30 ticks.
Timer Tick Setting (10) x Number of clicks on the [Increment
Simulation Timer Ticks]
button (2 + 1) = (10) x (2+1) =
30.
Scan Simulation Logic
Clicking the
[Scan Simulation Logic]
button causes
LogicPro
to execute the number of scans selected in the
simulation setup. For instance, if you selected 10 as the
number of Scans, then pushing this button will result in an
evaluation of all logic conditions 10 times.
Number of Scan
Modifying Number of Scan allows you to define how many
times your program executes each time you click on
[Scan]
.
1.
