I am using Matsushita model FP1-C24 PLC, and I got using timer in my program but I will need to pause my timer count value mid-way and then resume it later, how to do it?

For example: the timer originally is to count for 10 seconds, but I want to pause it when this timer counts 6 seconds, and then I will resume it to count another 4 seconds later.

 

Make it a retentive timer and just put a contact
in line. Counts when closed and stops when open.

Regards
