Description:
Table 01 shows which high-speed counters in which counter mode you can reset via the input concerned.
 

High-speed counters	Counter mode
	1	2	4	5	7	8	10	11
HSC0	E0.2
HSC1	E1.0
HSC2	E1.4
HSC4	E0.5

Table 01

In addition to the external reset option, you can also reset the high-speed counters internally triggered via the special flags listed in Table 02.
 

High-speed counters	New current value	Write new current value to HSC
HSC0	SMD38	SM37.6
HSC1	SMD48	SM47.6
HSC2	SMD58	SM57.6
HSC3	SMD138	SM137.6
HSC4	SMD148	SM147.6
HSC5	SMD158	SM157.6

Table 02

For this, you download the value 0 into the special flag word "New current value", write the "New current value" to the high-speed counter via the relevant special flag and activate the high-speed counter (HSC0).
Fig. 01 shows the function code in STEP 7 Micro/WIN for resetting the high-speed counter HSC0.

Fig. 01

In this example, resetting is triggered by the variable bit 0.0 that is reset again immediately after action and is thus available only for one cycle.

Note:
By loading the "New current value" you can also set the high-speed counters to any other values.

Note:
More information on the high-speed counters is available in the S7-200 system manual (Entry ID: 1109582).
