STEP 5 SF TIMER PROBLEM

[dazmac]

Urgent problem with an SF off-delay timer in Step 5.

I've got an output that starts an SF timer ,

The timer is set to run on 1 second after the output stops-

this happens OK, but the output is remaining on after the time has elapsed - this is different to the explanation in the S5 help files !!!

Stop the panic - problem solved !!!

It's a S5-100 CPU 103, I've just read you can have 128 timers T 0 - T 127,

I called mine T 200 to keep it sepaerate from the others when looking through the code !

This timer appears to work once, then stay on !

Renamed it T 127 and it functions perfect !

It's this kind of thing that keeps us S5 junkies young!
