delay one scan in P3K

[Div_by_zero]

I have a program with a counter in it. Sometimes, I might have to count two different events that can both go high on the same scan. When this happens, the counter only increases by one, not two. I band-aided this by adding a 5 millisecond delay timer to the second event. I am not particularly fond of coding like this. Is there a way to delay the second event going by exactly one scan so that it properly advances the counter? For what it's worth, using P3K. As always, thanks for any help.

Use your second event as a NOT then drive a PLS. Use the PLS contact to drive your counter. EDIT: Depending upon your second event timing this may not be what you want. Have your second event drive a PLS 'A' then use PLS 'A' NOT drive PLS 'B'. Use PLS 'B' to drive your counter. Edited October 9, 2014 by IO_Rack

Excuse my ignorance, but what is a PLS? Not sure if P3K has a NOT in it. I assume it must...

My appologies. I am the one confused here. I thought you were programming a PLC. I've not worked with the P3K.

In case it is helpful, the PLS I'm referring to is a Pulse or 'On for One Scan' instruction used in most AD PLCs. If you can make this happen with the P3K then consider this...

Count both events individually then add the accumulated values together. Edited October 9, 2014 by b_carlton

I was going to suggest that since the scan delays were getting more messy than his timer. :)

What I'm going to do (I think this suggestion has actually been implied) is ditch the counter and the baggage associated with it and just use integer math to index my sequencer.
