PLC70 Posted September 19, 2012 Report Posted September 19, 2012 Hi friends, I have some problem about counter instructions in CX Programmer. I connected CJ1M CPU11 with CX-Programmer via serial cable. In MONITOR MODE some of counter(CNT) instructions shows ERROR in the PV area while some counter instructions shows current counter value correctly. What could be the reason of this problem......kindly help..... Quote
gtsuport Posted September 19, 2012 Report Posted September 19, 2012 The CNT instruction PV value must be a BCD value. Please check these values to make sure they are not integer values. BCD numbers should be preceded by the # symbol and contain digits 0-9 only. Hope this will help. Quote
PdL Posted September 20, 2012 Report Posted September 20, 2012 Also, make sure you are monitoring in HEX format and not decimal. Check the icons in the toolbar... Quote
PLC70 Posted September 20, 2012 Author Report Posted September 20, 2012 Yes counter PV value is in BCD and also # symbol is used but still there is ERROR after some count. Quote
pfort Posted September 20, 2012 Report Posted September 20, 2012 Is the PV a constant or an address ? If it is an address i would check if there is not another instruction that write something in it. Quote
