Time/Timer
All returned values are from a referenced function or cell.
Function | Description |
---|---|
Returns the time, in milliseconds, for the image to be acquired and the job to execute, or #ERR if the input value is invalid. Note:
|
|
Returns the time, in milliseconds, between two consecutive image acquisitions or #ERR if the input value is invalid. Note: This argument
must reference cell A0, the cell containing the Image data
structure returned by the AcquireImage function. For more information, see AcquireImage.
|
|
Returns a Time data structure, which can be used to send the exposure timestamp (a record of when an In-Sight vision system begins its exposure when triggered to acquire an image). Note:
|
|
Returns the extracted system time offset value from a Time data structure. Note: The system time offset is only valid when PTP is enabled. For more information about setting up and configuring In-Sight vision systems for use with PTP, see Configure Time Synchronization.

GetTime(Cell1, [Cell2, ...]) |
Returns the time, in milliseconds, for a variable-length list of cells to execute or #ERR if the input value is invalid. If multiple cells are selected, the sum of all execution times is returned. |
Converts a Time data structure into a time value. The function is used to write a 64-bit representation of the time, in microseconds, to a PLC via the FormatOutputBuffer function. For more information, see FormatOutputBuffer. Note: This function is only valid when PTP is enabled. For more information about setting up and configuring In-Sight vision systems for use with PTP, see Configure Time Synchronization.
