High-Speed Instructions
As discussed earlier, PLCs have a scan time. The scan time
depends on the size of the program, the number of I/Os, and
the amount of communication required. However, events may
occur in an application that require a response from the PLC
sooner than the scan cycle would normally permit. For these
applications high-speed instructions, such as those associated
with high-speed counters, can be used.

High-Speed Counters A high-speed counter is represented by two boxes in ladder
logic. One box is the High-Speed Counter Definition (HDEF)
instruction and the other box is the
High-Speed Counter
(HSC) instruction.
CPU 221 and CPU 222 support four high-speed counters
(HSC0, HSC3, HSC4, HSC5). CPU 224, CPU 224XP, CPU
224XPsi, and CPU 226 support six high-speed counters (HSC0,
HSC1, HSC2, HSC3, HSC4, HSC5).
