Question. How would I use this example to use the wall clock capture to de increment a stop watch based on the event trigger. Say I, event trigger, and then subtract the seconds and minutes from a set time, say 5:00 minutes. And show on HMI 5:00, 4;59, ect.
Are you asking to subtract the time past since event? merely, add an instruction to do the math after the event was captured then develop the logic to trigger your math of the tag you make for the time lapse since event.
@@ShaneWelcher I have a position of the laser that I capture when the event happens. I would like to take the wall clock that is currently incrementing up and de increment a stopwatch based on the position. Event trigger- capture position laser- send know time(say 5:00 minutes) and de-increment the wallclock seconds and minutes from the stopwatch. I am currently doing the logic based on a timer but it is not very accurate. I thought since it is wall clock is counting more precise I could using its counting to step the stopwatch.
A very informative video I need to log date and time in RSLOGIX 5000 at daily interval and display on HMI for duration of 7 days can you please help me on the above Thanks
Do the same catch as in this video then also use the 🔍 icon on this channel for DateTime or Date & time That will show you how to create data types for DateTime

Great information...Thanks a million !!!
Glad to help, if you liked that, you'll love our training
Hi Shane, thanks for the video its exactly what I needed ! is it possible to have that event write to a text file?
Yes but that is much more complicated, not sure why you would to be honest.
@@ShaneWelcher the reason would be to create a log of the times the event occurred over 7 days. thanks again
