Entering Parameters

Accumulator Value (ACC)

This is the number of false-to-true transitions that have occurred since the counter
was last reset.

Preset Value (PRE)

Specifies the value which the counter must reach before the controller sets the done
bit. When the accumulator value becomes equal to or greater than the preset value,
the done status bit is set. You can use this bit to control an output device.

Preset and accumulated values for counters range from –32,768 to +32,767, and are
stored as signed integers. Negative values are stored in two’s complement form.
