Program Plan Intro

Count-Up (CTU) Counter:

  • The CTU counter refers to an up counter
  • This counter is used to count an event that occurs logically or externally and places that value in the counter’s accumulator.
  • The accumulated value can even be maintained during false rung conditions and can be reset back to 0 using reset instruction.

Math functions:

The basic math functions performed by PLCs are as follows:

  • Addition
    • This function is used to add one piece of data to another.
    • It is also called as ADD.
  • Multiplication
    • This function is used to multiply one piece of data by another.
    • It is also called as MUL.
