RsLogix 500 - Introduction To The Timer On (TON) Instruction

In this video, we introduce the Timer ON (TON) instruction, one of the most commonly used functions in PLC programming.

Timers allow you to delay actions in a control system and are essential for many real-world automation applications. In this short tutorial, we walk through how the TON instruction works, what each parameter means, and how it behaves when the input turns on and off.

You’ll learn:

1. What a Timer ON (TON) instruction does
2. How the preset time and accumulated time work
3. When the timer output becomes true
4. How timers behave when the input condition changes

This video is designed to help students prepare for PLC lab exercises and understand the fundamental behavior of timers before implementing them in their own programs.
