PROCESSING PROGRAM AND ELECTRONIC CONTROLLER

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a processing program which eliminates the need to pay attention to the execution period of a timer program as a processing program including a timer program realizing a timer function and an electronic controller which is loaded with the processing program. SOLUTION: On the premise that elapsed-time-after-start timer operation (S200 in (a)) as a timer program is executed in a 100 ms process which is executed at intervals of 100 ms, 100 ms as an execution cycle is substituted in a variable Tcyc prior to the execution of the 100 ms process. Then the set variable Tcyc is used in the elapsed-time-after-start timer operation to update an elapsed time T as shown by (b). COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO
