Yes

What is the primary purpose of a timer in Connected Components Workbench? *

10 points

To count the number of pulses

To generate analog signals

To create time delays in logic

To control the HMI screen

Which timer instruction times when the instructions preceding it are true in CCW? *

10 points

TON (On-Delay Timer)

RTO (Retentive Timer On)

C. TOF (Off-Delay Timer)

Both the TON (On-Delay Timer) and RTO (Retentive Timer On)

What happens to the accumulated value of a TON timer when its rung condition becomes false?
*

10 points

It writes a 0 to it

It holds its value

It times down down

It multiplies

What distinguishes an RTO timer from a TON timer in CCW?
*

10 points

RTO only times when the reset bit is false

RTO does nothing when false where the TON writes a 0 to everything but the Preset

RTO runs faster than TON

RTO cannot be reset

Which bit is used to reset an RTO timer in Connected Components Workbench?
*

10 points

EN (Enable)

TT (Timer Timing)

DN (Done)

RES (Reset)

What is the function of the CTU (Count Up) instruction in CCW?
*

10 points

It subtracts pulses from the accumulated value

It stores analog inputs

It increments the count each time the CU input transitions from FALSE to TRUE

It resets timers

What does the DN (done) bit indicate in both timers and counters in CCW?
*

10 points

The timer or counter has been disabled

The preset value has been reached

The instruction has failed

The PLC is in fault mode

Which type of timer would you use to delay turning off an output after a condition goes FALSE?
*

10 points

TON

RTO

TOF

CTD

In CCW, what happens when the reset input of a counter is activated?
*

10 points

The counter value increases

The counter stops

The accumulated value is cleared to zero

Nothing changes

What happens to a CTU (Count Up) counter in CCW after its accumulated value reaches the preset value?
*

10 points

It resets automatically

It stops counting additional pulses until reset

It continues counting indefinitely

It disables the entire rung
