Methogs to Kalkulate Cycle Time
There are desal methodas to detertie cycle time in PLC autmation:
- FLT: 0 = 33I; Using Timer Functions: 131; FLT: 1: 1 ASA3; Implement timers with this PLC program to record the duration of eauch cycle.
- Pertama, pertama, FLT: 0 ASA3; Ado Logging:
- SOftwere Tools: Qua1; FLT: 0 SOFTWARE: Softwere Tools: Qua1; FLT: 1 AF3; Use specized softwaire that interfaces with to analze cycle darations.
