QUESTION:
Is the run-time meter reset after an overall reset of the CPU?
ANSWER:
In the S7-300 and C7 complete devices a difference is made between
CPUs with a hardware clock (integrated "real-time clock") and CPUs
with a software clock. The last run-time meter value in the CPUs
with a software clock with no back-up is deleted after an overall
reset of the CPU. In the case of the CPUs with a hardware clock
with back-up, the last run-time meter value is retained after an
overall reset of the CPU.
Table 1 lists the CPUs with software clock. All other S7-300
CPUs and C7 complete devices have a hardware clock. The S7-400 CPUs
all have hardware clocks.
