The document discusses counters in ladder logic diagrams. Counters are used to count down from a preset value when a count pulse condition changes from off to on. The counter must be programmed with inputs like count and reset signals as well as a counter number and set value. Example ladder logic and mnemonic code for a counter are also provided.

COUNTERS ## Read Ch-8 of Petruzella’s Book, etc.##
1. Introduction
- is used to count-down from SV when the execution
condition on the count pulse, CP, goes from OFF to ON, i.e. the preset value, PV, will be decremented by one whenever CNT is executed with an ON execution condition for CP and the execution will OFF for the last execution.
- The counter must be programmed with a count input, a
** to avoid a conflict execution of the program by PLC, pls avoid to use similar address for TIM and CNT (due to they are sharing the same data area within the PLC memory)
- The Set Value (SV) can be ranged from 0000 to 9999.
