Counter

This function counts the input signals. There are several output values available for this purpose.

 

Data points of the component

Name

Type

function

Disable

Input

Here the component can be deactivated with an "on" signal. A "Off" signal reactivates the counter.

Input

Input

Here only on / off values ​​are counted. These are not added to "Meter reading values". All input formats are counted as 1 here when creating. The output varies depending on the formatting. For example, when entering a text, the output "count of any command" is incremented by 1; When a switching pulse is input, we additionally count "counter status of switching edge" and "counter status of switching cycles".

Threshold - On time reached

Output

Switches from off to on when the set time has been reached.

Value Input

Input

Here, the entered numerical values ​​are added to the output meter reading values.

Counter cycles

Output

Returns the counterValue On for which an arbitrarily formatted signal has been created at the input.

Counter stateless

Output

Returns the number of switching edges. Which edge is counted can be selected in the settings.

Counter switching edges

Output

The number of times the value input has been delivered

Counter Values

Output

Returns the current CountValue Off. This corresponds to an addition of all input values.

Reset

Input

Sets all outputs of the counter to 0

Time On

Output

Returns the time in which the "on" signal is present at the input. The output in e.g. The value-dependent text component must be formatted accordingly. e.g. % H:% M or% H:% M:% S

Time On [s]

Output

Returns the time in second, in which the "on" signal is present at the input.

Time Off

Output

Returns the time in which the signal "Off" is present at the input. The output in e.g. The value-dependent text component must be formatted accordingly. e.g. % H:% M or% H:% M:% S

Time Off [s]

Output

Returns the time in second, in which the signal "Off" is present at the input.

 

Properties

Name

 

function

Counter direction - On to Off

 

If the parameter is not set, circuits are counted from on to off. If this was set, the flank is counted from off to on.

Threshold - On time(h)

0

Defining the threshold value for the switching state An in hours

Trigger interval (ms)

60000

Sampling rate in milliseconds (min. 1000) Tip: If changes are made, the project must be reloaded in the editor for the simulation to work.

 

Tip: When using the "Value-dependent text" component, the output of the counter readings is undefined.
