Hi,
i was wandering if there is a command or function, to calculate how long does cycle or loop take to finish, when executing MIAC program

thanks for any help or tip

There is nothing like that built into the API
Maybe you could output a high on A,B,C or D at the start of the loop, then output a low at the end.
Then either measure the time period with an oscilloscope, or repeat the loop a defined number of times to do it visually, depending on what exactly your cycle does.

thanks but what i wanted to do is to calculate the time each cycle in my progam take, and using this time define a counter for event, how much that event occur on each hour, day and month.
now i already did estimate a time, and it worked perfectly. however my main problem is that i also added a menu, now how much the user spent inside the menu is my problem he could spent 3 min, 1 min, a few second, or even forget it for an hour. so the estimation of the time for that phase (decision) will be hard.

well i will try to check the RTC inside the advanced module since most likely i will need to add this module to MIAC system for storage

i wanted to check if flowcode have this function implemented.

thanks a lot
