Re: [?]: OB35 - 100ms

Dear almaz78, Actually, it was my misunderstanding with the occurence of OB35. By default it comes every 100ms which means M1.0 will stay on for 100ms and off for another 100ms and so on (thanks for your advice as well in your 2nd last post). That means M1.0 will have a rising edge every 200ms and a...

How come it gives correct results with 100 even though FC1 is called from OB1 and not in OB35??
