Writing counter values to .CSV delimited lines

[luk]

Hi,

 

I'm wondering if Counter values can be written to .CSV delimited lines like Memory Integers.

 

Currently I am using memory integers as a counter in my program and wish to change them into counters to simplify/cleanup my code. However, the option of adding counters to my .CSV delimited lines don't seem to exist. Is there a better way to do this?

 

Thanks!

Hi Luk,

A counter counts rising-edge pulses.

When the accumulated number of pulses equals the counter's preset value, power flows through the function and the counter bit turns ON. Once the preset value is reached, the counter bit stays ON until it is reset via a Reset Coil. This also initializes the counter value.

It does not hold retentive values as a MI or ML would. This is why they are not listed to be used.
