Hi
Use a Display-Functionsblock (example line 3) and set the values of the counter in one of the fore lines. With the button "Texteingabe" it is possible to write adittional letters in any order. See exampels in the appendix. More questions? Don't hesitate to ask.

I'm having 3 easy 800 home. The counter is counting when someone is using the doorbell.

Earlier i had one Zelio, and just make the doorbel-count for fun. But noe I think its great. I replased the Zelio to Easy because wanted to exspend the system.


But I like to get the time of the last count-signal, how do I do that? Is it possible the memorize the clock in a variable?


Sorry for my poor english

hi runerask!

my english is also very little, but i will try to give you an answer.

i think there is no way at the moment, you can only get informaton from the clock with the clock relay (in german called "Schaltuhr"). the only way i see, you may start a blinking timer with a clock frequency of one minute. with this timer you takt a counter and every time using the doorbell you make a reset of the counter. so you have at the least the minutes from the last doorbell.

i hope this answer isn't wrong!

Hi

I just programmed this funktion, but is it posible the calculate hours when i got many minutes (minutes above 60)?

I'm thining about use a text-display for every hour counting. I just make the hour in a textformat, and use a counter as a variable. But I then also need a variable how can calculate the minutes (minutes=TotalCounterMinutes-hourMinutes)

Hi
Count the Minutes like bevore. If the Minutes-value is 59 give an impulse to a second counter and reset together the Minutes-counter. Display the value of both counters
Counter 1 = Minutes
Counter 2 = Hours

Good luck

Thank you very much

I was infact thinking the same way after i maked the question.

It was something wrong in my programming. I'm trying to use a textwindow in front of easy for every hour, but it doesnt work yet. I try to let it look as a clock, by set a text number for hour in front of minutes. I'll try more later

Hi again

Is it possible to get two countervariables into one variable?

I thinking to get both counters (minutes and hour variables) in one line in the display

Is it possible?

Hello runerask,


you need a MFD with CPU to show at on line two variable. At an Easy-800
with display is two variables don't show this on a line possibly.

Hi Runerask
Its possible to show hours and minutes on the same Display among each other.
Have a look at the appendix.
