Using Basic Instructions
8–16
Use the TON instruction to delay the turning on or off of an output. The
TON instruction begins to count timebase intervals when rung conditions
become true. As long as rung conditions remain true, the timer increments
its accumulated value (ACC) each scan until it reaches the preset value
(PRE). The accumulated value is reset when rung conditions go false,
regardless of whether the timer has timed out.
