    Hello everyone

    I have the following task: to detect the running time of the machine in automatic mode.
    The machine is a Chiron FZ15 with a Siemens 840D controller.
    It has 2 tool spaces. Table 1 and Table 2
    I want to count the running time in the automatic mode (processing of the program) not the stand still time.
    Can anybody help me out??? I tried it with the cycle as explained in the manual but without success.

    Kind regards

    Have you tried it with the timer function?

    Program start
    $AC_TIMER[1]=0 ;Timer1 start
    ...
    ...
    ...
    Program end
    $AC_TIMER[1]=-1 ;Timer 1 stop
    R10=$AC_TIMER[1]/60 ;running time minutes inR10
