HMI link to a bit

[hotwires]

Dear Community,

How does one link an HMI element to a bit in a manner where the bit is only true for the duration that the HMI element is held to touch? In visilogic I used the HMI link to bit and then linked that bit to a TON timer. To reset an hour meter numeric element the operator would press and hold the HMI element for 5 seconds, the timer would go true, a PTC contact would trigger a RESET NUMERIC coil; then Happy, happy, happy. Now not so much. Is this achievable in UniL? Actions seem to be latch oriented. Thanks All.

Sincerely,

You can have on the same button:

Set bit on Pressed

Reset bit on Release

OK, did not realize the two opposing forces could work together as a "bit true for duration of touch".  Setting up two lines on actions: set bit pressed, reset bit released works exactly as desired. Thank you Saragani!
