PULSEFREQUENCY

[m.law]

I'm pretty new to the PLC/TBASIC game and the PULSEFREQUENCY function is giving me some trouble.

I'm just trying to simulate a pulse using a .02s clock and a custom function to display the frequency on the LCD screen. I"m basically doing what they did on this post: http://www.tri-plc.com/yabbse/index.php?board=1;action=display;threadid=1392;start=msg4419#msg4419

and it's just not working. Any help is appreciated.

Which PLC model are you using? Note that the pulse measurement inputs are mapped differently for different PLC models. These are usually explained in Chapter 1 of the PLC's User's Manual.

So if you are using Nano-10 the PMON 1 maps to DI #1, whereas on the T100MD+ it is mapped to DI #3.

I'm currently just simulating it using i-TRiLOGI Version 6.31 software. But we're planning on implementing the T100MD+.

Pulse measurement cannot be simulated since it is implemented by hardware interrupt service. Once you load the actual program into the PLC it will work immediately. There shouldn't be a problem.
