how to store counter value into D register or M memory?

[pjw]

Hi,

What is the idea to store counter value into D register or M memory address in mit plc?

I don't have the Mitsubishi software handy to show an example but I'll explain.

The counter's value can be a static value that once programmed, it will never change. If you use a D register for the value, then the set time can be adjusted, or changed. For example, from an HMI.

Do you want to just move the accumulated value?   If so, just use a MOV command.

Like [MOV C0 D1000].

Here is a way I found recently that works well so far in our application.

 

My counter looks like this

    INCP_U(SCARA.VacuumSwitch, D3263);       //D3263 is HMI.PartsPicked. For some reason when I use HMI.PartsPicked it gives an error when rebuilding.
    RST(HMI.ResetPartsPicked, HMI.PartsPicked);

On my HMI I made a number display and used D3263 for my device.
