M172 pulse generator

POPE3909 · ‎2022-11-18

Hi Noobie here,

Is there any built-in pulse generator in M172 controller, I see there is R-trig but the ON period is too short. Or do I need to build one myself with timers to adjust the ON period?

Thanks in advance.

And as additional information for a better understanding.

TP creat "only" 1 Puls for the time PT after EN get a TRUE.

Pulse create 1 Puls related to the value of periode and the number of tasks.

If you call Pulse in a timed task with a task time of 100ms the block will creat with a period input of 10 every 1s a true output.
