OMRON CP1L Programming Help

[iain545]

Hi all. New to this PLC programming so bear with me please. I am using an OMRON SYSMAC CP1L. Needing a part of my program to allow one button to be used for 3 different functions. Pressed once: Turns system on Pressed twice: Turns half of system off Pressed and help for 5 secs: Full stop I can figure the rest out but it is just trying to make the program determine the difference between the first press and second. I can use a TIMER function for the 5 second hold section. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

can be done different way like - start timer (3 seconds for example) and reset counter - at the end of timer: . . - if button still pressed (long press, full stop) . . - if button no longer pressed check counter value (number of times button was pressed) alternatively one may sample button state to distinguish patterns, something like: distinguish button press by sampling pattern.pdf
